Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island | For me the two steering gears dsn't look the same?! the support and bearing "sleeve" seems shorter.
In your steering gear, the support should have a hole through that allows you to knock out the pin - then it's only to pull out the coupling.
Check the measurements, lenght and diamerter of the support and bearing unit. |

Location: Southern California | Hi wizard, yeah sorry the pic was just reference, I know it's different. I have the correct one for my car. I'm simply missing the coupling. So what your saying is knock out the pins on my old one and transfer the coupling to my new gearbox?

Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island | Yep - better so say tap it out carefully - the input shaft is sensitive - if the pin give´you a fight, be sure to support the coupling well with an anvil (or a piece of oak) |
