You bet. I have dr's appts today and tomorrow. You would just need to update the steering column ($45 at Wrench A Part - might be $34 if I go and Angie is the cashier!) and I'll just give you one of the modded shafts, I have so little in it and would like to help a squarebody owner. :waytogo:

So I need to get the steering coupler, then go to the Wrench a part and get the steering column, and you would give me the shaft?

I had to run to pick up my niece from school, and Is been a crazy day...

Man, this is hitting me right in the heart, good **** Retro. :kiss:

Frank, if you get together with Retro on this you will just need the column. The shaft Retro is offering you eliminates that rag joint/steering coupler so you would not need to purchase that. :)

I had to go to an appointment myself. But yeah, I hate to see you plunk down $50 for a coupler and then eliminate it but you gotta do what you gotta do.

If it's going to improve it, I'm all for it, If you want I can pick you up and we could go to the Wrench a part... unless I will ruin your mojo with Angie...

Or I can pick you up, what ever is best. It would have to be the weekend though since I have 2 more appointments the rest of this week.

Whatever works for you, I thought since you will be helping me install it, at least I should do the driving.

This would be a good opportunity to sneak a pic of Angie, have Jay pose with her and take a pic! That is, unless Angie used to be an Andy...

Am I missing something?

I don't think you're in the loop, I am a drag queen. But I won't be in drag for this. :rofl:

Hahahahah...I think her husband might get a bit upset and I don't want that. When he's there, I can go through and see the good **** before it hits the yard.
