steering coupler

[delorenzos]

I bought the steering coupler repair kit and I am trying to figure out how to install the flexible coupling. I'm guessing I have to drill out the rivits and find a press to install the new ones. If thats the case, is there anyway of doing it without a press?

Allthough I cant tell you how to do it I can tell you years ago I purchase a repair kit. And after getting and looking at it , I decided to to purchase an entire replacement coupler. the kit I had purchased actaully had nuts and bolts to attach the rubber peices to the steel peices .

Good Luck with it

The one I've seen has bolts and rivits. If it's not going to look original then I'll be purchasing the entire coupler as well.

Replace the coupler assembly - the "repair kits" are poorly-designed with inferior materials; that's NOT the place where you want to save money.

I just received the repair kit - what a waste. I'll be purchasing a new coupler.
Thanks everyone
