    Steering Shaft U-Joints

    Does anyone have a source and part number for the universal joints on the steering shaft? (Top and Bottom) I have a MK4 kit with the PS rack from FFR. I had these pieces at one point and for the life of me I can't find them.

    I know I can get them from FFR but would prefer to source them locally if able.

    .....memory is the 2nd thing to go.

    They have changed these many times. You might want to post a pic of what you do have to help get the right parts

    So I did find them at Flaming River and for those who are curious my application requires 1" DD to 3/4" DD on top and 3/4"DD to 3/4 36" spline on the bottom.

    Might also try Sweet Manufacturing, great product. Fit to the steering shaft and joint play was far superior to the FFR parts supplied. Simple ordering format as well. https://sweetmanufacturing.com/
