I just replaced mine with a Dorman rag joint shaft. The hardest part was getting the top bolt out since someone used an impact and rounded the bolt! I used an Irwin bolt extractor, replaced the bolt and nut, then pushed the boot on the new shaft back far enough to go up into the column. I broke the plastic collar off since I did not push it down far enough to clear the frame. Oh well, it works great! No more steering wheel slip!
Nice to hear that man crazy how much it makes a difference , no slip anymore!
@@sidewayzindustries2613do you have an update vid about this? Did this remove the play in the steering wheel? Thank you
Awesome video, y'all. I have one of those to install on my 1998 C1500 ext cab. This answers every question I had!!! 👍🏻😁🙂
Good video. I totally over looked that on my 98 gmc Yukon. I replaced the tie rods, pitman arm, idler arm, sway bar links and still have sloppy steering. I am going to order this part right now. Thanks man
Gimme an update bro I’m in your same boat
I did the exact same thing. New everything even wheel hub bearings, control arms ball joints inner and outer tie rods...shop still wouldn't line it up. Both wheels had side to side play, but at the same time
@@Beek88 you got a new rag joint ?
@@Morgancj I got a lower steering shaft from a 96 Jeep Cherokee. Only slight modification was needed. Drives so much better. I still need to get a steering damper. Once I can find a center link with 5 holes from a 3/4 ton GMC suburban.
@@Morgancj2 years no answer is a bummer.
Did mine and couldn’t get it to slide out as easy as yours. Had to remove the bolt from under the dash on my 96. Great video.
Appreciate it , doing a giveaway at 2k subs!
Thank you so much for this vid. I have had the swanging issue for the longest lol, cant wait to make this upgrade
Some of these gear boxes have an alignment pin.
I used a Dremel and cut it off.
fit percent after modification.
For anyone that’s wondering .
Cunningham Machine site says that if you have the aftermarket Dorman upper…this lower won’t fit without modifications. I have the Dorman upper and interested in knowing what modifications need to be done for this lower to fit and work properly? Thx!
Maybe instead of showing 2 minutes of spraying and wiping a plastic part that wasn’t even used in the end you could have used that time to actually report on how much this improved the steering performance.
How did you get it to slide all the way on the steering box shaft? Does your steering gear box have the alignment pin on the end of the shaft?
you ever get yours on? cant get mine
I used a Dremel and cut it off.

Spread the lower side where its pinched to the box and it will fall apart for you.
thanks for the great video that was complete
I did get pulled over lol 😂
I haven’t but it was funny because I thought I was the only one that was bound to get pulled over for it 😂
How much improvement? Worth it?
Yes , tighten up the steering a lot
Can the same action be taken for 92 Buick Roadmaster ???
How did it come off I loosen both bolts. You didn’t show how you took it off
So I don’t need to get the same old style model one 98 one with the round steering coupler on it?? What difference does that make
Would it fit a 95 2 door Yukon 4x4
Yes
What web site you got that from brother. That's what I need
Link should be in the description
Would the plastic hard cover not work ? I saw you installed on table but final ending didn’t have cover on
Yeah I think put it in the video , to remove the lower plastic , doesn’t work only the upper rubber will
@@sidewayzindustries2613 thanks for the video
Why haven’t you uploaded bro
Will this part work for a 94’?
Yes I believe they make a specific one for those years
It’s better for you and cheaper to grab one of a Jeep Cherokee XJ get one at pick a part for the low should be plug and play and it’s the universal u joint
What if I don’t have those tools?
On 2:28 it don’t just come out and at 2:32 you had it off
Adjustable ranch lol
how long did it take them to send it out to you
Not long , heard they’re on back order at the moment
Would that fit 93
Yes there’s a specific one for 88-94 and 95-99
@@sidewayzindustries2613 I have a '95 but it's pretty much the same as the older trucks but with the newer interior. Is that why the '95 needs a different shaft because of the interior update?
No offense but with 2 of you there you could have move the camera in a way for viewers to see what you're doing. Not very helpful.
