How to Repair Loose Steering #393226 06/22/2010 6:09 PM

Hey guys, was inspecting things on van on why the steering was loose. My steering wheel moves about 6 inches each way when the engine is off. It's really bad. I found out most of it is at the coupler near the steering box. I found some parts and my manual shows how to fix it. Here are the pictures of the parts and the diagram.

I got the repair kit off of rockauto for about 10 bucks after shipping. Looks pretty easy and I will include more pics when I get the parts and install.

X 2 on a u joint being far superior to the Cup. I replaced my steering gear at the same time but the difference in steering feel was astounding

I feel like I could technically take the "pot" off completely with the guts and just put a U joint right from the intermediate shaft to the steering gear splines shaft.
I think I'm going to bring it out to the Offroad shop by me and we can brainstorm a bit.
