Thanks Larry - I've never encountered that problem, but it is scary. Have a '66 300 and '66 Charger. Will check them both tomorrow. Probably should check the 300F as well.

In all the years in the Club, I believe this topic has never been discussed. I parked the 66 in the garage after a 380 mile round trip to the home of Sea Biscuit yesterday (Go California Chrome this Saturday!!) Started the car today to go buy gas and all of a sudden there was no connection between the steering wheel and the steering box. Under that shop light looking thingy is a rag joint and but two bolts hold the upper steering shaft to the short bottom part that turns the steering box. The two bolts have nuts and are supposed to have cotter keys to prevent the nut from falling off. One of them had no cotter key and the nut had fallen off. Thank you God for waiting until I was safely parked in my garage for the incident to manifest. Have you ever looked at your rag joint? ------------------------------------ Posted by: MARK HOPKINS <m.hopkins@xxxxxxx> ------------------------------------ To send a message to this group, send an email to: Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to bob@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or go to http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Chrysler300/join and select the "Leave Group" button For list server instructions, go to http://www.chrysler300club.com/yahoolist/inst.htm For archives go to http://www.forwardlook.net/300-archive/search.htm#querylangYahoo Groups Links <*> To visit your group on the web, go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Chrysler300/ <*> Your email settings: Individual Email | Traditional <*> To change settings online go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Chrysler300/join (Yahoo!
