DSE Steering Shaft Kit - Bare Steel (1978 - 1988 GM G-Body / 1982 - 1992 GM F-Body / 1982 - 2003 S10 2WD) - 092519DS
Take the slop out of your factory steering connection with the Detroit Speed Steering Shaft Kit 092519DS. Designed to eliminate the original rag joint assembly, this upgrade delivers a firmer, more precise connection between the steering column and steering gear while also improving valuable underhood clearance. For drivers looking for sharper steering response without introducing unnecessary harshness, Detroit Speed incorporates a vibration-reducing joint to help isolate unwanted vibration while maintaining improved steering feel.
The kit uses a telescopic intermediate steering shaft along with the required universal joints to replace the factory-style connection. A vibration-damping U-joint combines a 3/4-inch-30 spline connection with a 3/4-inch DD connection, while the opposite universal joint uses 1-inch DD connections. The bare-steel assembly is engineered as a complete steering shaft solution for the specified GM G-Body, GM F-Body and S10 2WD applications.
