Steering coupler? From: 1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]
On Behalf Of JimJablonski Thanks, George. Do you know what this is called? Nothing comes up when I Google "Mopar Grease Box Thingy"
What I did the 1st time yrs. Ago too. Just make sure it still has grease in it anthe seal is good,also make sure the metal piece w/ the tangs isn't bent out out of shape. New kits for that are avaiable too Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE DROID
Hey there folks, I popped off the steering column yesterday. I drove out the roll pin at the sterering gear, unbolted the firewall and collar bolts from the inside of the car, then gave it a tugaroo to pull it free. I was surprised to find when I pulled
it out that it had become disconnected at the little grease box (not sure of the proper name) and not at the end of the column / at the steering gear. So I pried-off the end still connected to the gear, and re-attached it to the column by bending the tangs
back down on the grease box cover. Could someone validate this assumption for me: I am assuming that it is OK to pop it back in, and that the connection under what I am calling the "grease box" will stay connected once the column is re-attached to the gear, and bolted to the firewall? My assumption is that it cannot
move front-to-back once bolted in, so it won't come apart at the "grease box." Additionally, the little tangs on the grease box are just there to keep the cover on and could not possibly have anyting to do with holding things together. Does this sound right or do I have an issue? I would hate for the steering wheel to come off in my hands the first time I put my foot into the stroker.
