Where do I get coupler or slip joint for column? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have some slop in the coupler on the steering column. This is the piece under the hood about a 1/3 of the way down the column. One half of the shaft slides into the other with a couple of bits and pieces inside. It's the piece just after the spring.
Ugh I hope this explanation helps cause it sounds like a mess to me

I took the truck to the alignment shop and they called with a list of pieces to fix before I bring it back to actually get it aligned.
Thanks for any help

Terry

I believe what you are refering to is called the steering shaft extension, and it is an assembly from the upper shaft to the rag joint. I would try posting on the parts board and someone should be able to help you.
