Ordered mine first thing this morning! Thanks for setting this all up.

They said they're around 30 already, so so far so good.

They didn't?
All the steering boxes I find are 80-96 and have all the same part numbers. If they had one for my '81, they should have had one for your '95. Unless they ran out?

Mine came, can't believe it didn't tear through the cardboard box it came in, considering how heavy it is. So I'm wondering, at what point are we supposed to get this discount? When we send the core back or something?

They told me that when they refund the core, they'll refund the discount, since the discount depended on how many people ordered.

That came fast!!
I'm planning on putting mine in this weekend.

I was told the same thing, and also that the minimum # had already been ordered, so the discount would apply to everyone. They were continuing to structure the refund/return the same way for everyone in the group buy even after they knew the min had been met, which I think is fair. Everyone is treated the same.


Mine should be here any time. I can't wait to see how big a difference it makes! (old box is absolutely horrible!)

Just got confirmation that mine's been delivered and sitting on my porch at home. That was quick!

Installed mine tonight. Took about 3 hours. Not too bad!
Such an amazing improvement!

Only issue I'm running into is even though I paid for return shipping, there's no prepaid shipping. Or am I missing something? Those that had pre-paid shipping, how did it work?
Either way, I'll just call them on Monday.

But, this has been great. Finally fixed my worn out steering.

Nice.. are you running a new rag joint/coupling disc, or an entire aftermarket shaft, etc?

How did you pay for return shipping? I thought the initial cost was them shipping the box to us, then I'm assuming they want us to pay out of our pocket to ship the core back? I might be wrong but that's what I assumed.

Same rag joint. Unless it was replaced before I got it, it probably has around half a million miles on it (seriously). It works great, and looks to be in good shape, so I haven't replaced it yet.

When I was on the phone with them, they asked me if I wanted to pay $30 or $60 for shipping. The latter having return shipping included.

Hmmm, I never found one. Perhaps I'm just blind
