NOTE:
The stock Jeep column shaft is a 7/8" diameter.
This column shaft is also hallow. To properly
secure the yoke to the column, you will need to
use the yoke as a template and drill one 5/16"
diameter hole 3/16" deep for the short set
screw. The second hole for the long set screw
needs to be drilled with a 19/64" drill through
one side of the column shaft. This set screw is
then installed through the yoke and one side of
the column shaft tighten up on the opposite
inside wall of the stock column. Once both set
screws are installed tighten the jam nut and
locktite to secure.
CUSTOM STEERING COLUMNS:
Custom columns offer several distinct advantages. The advantages include locks, tilts, flashers, and custom vehicle appearance.
However, they do create some problems and require careful consideration when mounting them to the floorboard and universal joint
connection.
Universal joints are available to match nearly every style steering column available. The special spline size on some of the custom
columns will require a new U-joint. We offer a wide selection of various sizes. The new universal joint is supplied with a mating
connection that will fit the new 3/4” DD steering shaft. If a custom column is being used and you have already purchased the stock
Jeep 7/8” diameter column yoke, you will then need to exchange your universal joint for the one that will be required on your installation.
We offer special yoke assemblies to connect a custom steering column to our Saginaw steering components.
