DSE Steering Shaft - Stock Column - 1-Inch DD Output (1979 - 1987 Chevrolet C10 / GMC C15 with SpeedMAX) - 092531DS
Complete the steering connection on your SpeedMAX-equipped square-body truck with the Detroit Speed 092531DS Steering Shaft. Designed specifically for 1979 - 1987 Chevrolet C10 and GMC C15 trucks using the stock steering column with a 1-inch DD output and Detroit Speed SpeedMAX front suspension, this kit connects the factory column to the SpeedMAX GMT800-style rack and pinion. Rather than piecing together universal steering components, the 092531DS gives you a purpose-built combination engineered around the Detroit Speed front suspension system.
Detroit Speed builds its steering coupler U-joints from high-quality steel using modern CNC machining technology. Staked needle-bearing caps, similar to those used in OEM automotive U-joints, help prevent loosening and adjustment issues. The 092531DS includes a 3/4-inch-36 splined steering shaft measuring 14 inches long, a 1-inch DD x 3/4-inch-36 U-joint for the stock steering column connection, and a GMT800 steering rack to 3/4-inch-36 U-joint. Detroit Speed specifies this steering shaft as a required component for applicable 1979 - 1987 C10/C15 SpeedMAX installations.
