steering coupling??
Ok so the "Project" is moving on. Slowly
My son has put a 08' CV front suspension under a 84' f150. Why, so it will be unique and improve the steering and handling and braking substantially .
Our question is what is the coupling for the rack and pinion? It is not splined, On the male stub out of the R&P, its about .75 round with a 2 flats at 120deg apart. Is that a "Ford" only item (coupling and shaft)? or can we just get the female end and build our shaft to fit our needs?

I think an adaptor is available from Borgeson. I have a crown vic under my 66. I used the original crown vic steering shaft and converted the upper end to adapt to an aftermarket steering column. Pretty simple and it works well. "I just saw that this is an old thread
