I’ve got a tiny bit of play in my steering, and the u-joint near the front bulkhead has some visible wear. Figure I’ll replace both of them as well as the shaft bearing and coupler. Anything else I should consider? I’m going to preorder the parts so hoping to have what I need on hand. I’ll inspect the rest when I drop the rack.

I need to replace the rubber coupler on my '73 and wondered if there was a good thread about it or if Ian has a video about it.
My computer skills are not the best and I can never get the search function to work very well. TIA. |
