So who is getting the shaft
Ok I talked with Ryan and I'll just buy his when he comes over. So Dave you can sell it to mike or Ben or someone and put an end to this confusing a$$ thread
That is what I was waiting for...you and Ryan to figure out his offer!
Now I will move on to Babaganoosh (BEN?), he was next in line in the original thread where this started from....If he is out, then NorCal69 (MIKE) is next in line for it.
Ben let me know if your still interested!
To the other inquiries, the junkyard I went to had about 6 of these, a few were already taken, a couple torched in half, and one just plain rusty and worn...so I wasn't able to score any others....I suggest if you do find one to get on it ASAP!
By the looks of it, Ben will not need this till 2016....... Or so.
How much are you asking and what's your PayPal.
I need this for my coil over mock up so it can wheel the garage.

Would any of you know the extended and collapsed measurements of a shaft?
I will try and get a measurement tonight
Got the shaft, now to learn how to make it work.
Thanks Zim.

If you have a great big vise, perfect. If not, I like to pin one side against the bottom of the truck and the other against a floor jack. Apply heat to the center of the shaft and compress with the jack. Work slowly as you don't want to collapse too far and you also don't want to melt the plastic spacers inside.
You will probably need to pull your steering column up some so the shaft will fit between it and the box. Other than notching the column side for the bolt a tad, you're done.
not exactly what you wanted but close enough I'm sure
