I bought a generic Ford coupler (rubber part with pins and bolts) from autozone's help section the other day for 7.99$, not sure if its going to work but it looks like it might. They looked up the correct one for my truck and it was 79$ so Im going to try this 1st

No, the part I bought is just the rubber disc and hardware, there should be a flange on your steering box and one on your column, are you sure ones missing?

I'm pretty sure the $79 one at autozone is the complete coupler; flanges, rubber disc and hardware.

hmm

I know the rubberis missing damn i can move my wheel at least 1 - 2 inches without the tire budgging.lol

I tried to buy the rubber piece no one makes it im in ontario near toronto no autozones here...

So then my buddy said im missing a bracket .. thats how he described it. Im assuming that is the rubber or leather material broke down that the bracket could break of also go missing..

I am going to looking up a picture of a coupler and see what im missing for sure but im off to a good start thanks
