Steering has a gap?

sprngfldxj · Jul 21, 2008

Need help to remedy the steering shaft from the fire wall to the gear box.
On cold days it has gap as if the box is out of adjustment, but on warm days it does just fine. I found the cause in the joint just out of the firewall. Is there a way to fix it? Or do i just replace it?
With what?

if your talking about the shaft from the firewall to the gear box. It's supposed to be able to extend and retract. I would assume for ease of installation or maybe some other purpose. What exactly do u mean by gap. maybe a picture would help.

I should have been more precise. The shaft does not move in and out as in sliding back and forth, rather it has a gap in the joint just out side of the firewall to the gear box, where it moves left to right/right to left.

Only on later models.....not on the renix.

Only on later models.....early models don't have the collapsable steering shaft.
