hi all
ive got some play in the steering,i tracked it down to the uj in the engine by(it seen better days)
any idea where to get new one or decent second-hand
thanks for now......nic

All the usual suspects should be able to supply you with this part. TD Fitchett should be your first port of call. You could post a thread in the "wanted" section.

This subject of replacing lower steering coupling comes up quite often.
The replica joints are simply rubbish being poor quality and dimensionally incorrect.

If you have an original type, the best option is to fit new bushes from Superflex.
Failing that you can use a T2000 manual steering upper joint (it will probably be necessary to shorten
the intermediate shaft). These and the Superflex bushes are available from Chris Witor.
(You can buy the exact same forged UJ from Ford specialists as an Escort fitment for a great deal more .)


I have a rebuilt original steering coupling (with new bolts and Superflex) bushes available.
The price is £35 including postage to a UK address for payment by bank transfer, cheque or postal order.
If you really have to use Paypal the price is £45.
Please PM if interested.


thanks,

Ian.
