OK... 1st of all the car needs to be off the ground, ramps lift etc. The proper Part number for this is: Help Line Dorman Part# 31000. This Rag Joint is 2-1/4 inches
center bolt hole to bolt hole. #1 remove coupler bolts at shaft. #2 remove upper shaft bolt at firewall. #3 Tap coupler at rack spline to loosen off shaft. #4 spray shaft upper with a good penetrating oil at slip spline. #5 sometimes need to tap upper shaft out of slip spline. see pictures of spline in vise,take car to mark your steering shaft ,have wheels straight. Drill out the 2 riveted post from lower coupler( in picture ) Bolt on Dorman Kit #31000 has instructions ,reused hardware with new bolts. #6 Loosen Rack front 2 bolts, and move rack forward to allow rebuilt shaft room to reinstall. #7 please note that the upper shaft at the firewall is (u-shaped) on on side at the end and must be installed matching this way. #8 Make sure to clean and lube shaft upper ,and lower rack spline. #8 Line up re tighten 2-rack bolts ,then all others. Drives like New! Hope this helps.....Kirk
