I can't remember if it's got a master spine, I think it dose. the roll pin is not doing anything were you have it now. Take it apart and check it out.

It's got a master spline. There is a slight V ground into the coupler, that is where the master spline is and it must line up with the master on the shaft.

@RUNCHARGER
Just for info...
Is the master spline on both upper and lower halves that are split with the dowel groove?
Asking because it is already installed half way in.

RUNCHARGER · October 11, 2019, 07:00:30 AM

Yes it is. Look for the v-groove on the coupler matching the master on the splined rod.

Looking good, it's coming together.
Like every project, the small details will eat up most of your time.

So I took the coupler off and tried to see if it will fit over the steering box which it with some force from the hammer

JS29 · October 14, 2019, 06:18:48 AM

That looks more like it.

I imagine it's possible, but it's much easier to attach the column to the coupler first, IMHO, than try and put the small, greased up pieces, into the coupler with it installed on the steering box. Just my

having had my column in and out of my car several times.

RUNCHARGER · October 14, 2019, 04:28:56 PM

I've done them that way, it's really no problem other than it's a bit tricky to get the little plate on there permanently.

Cuda70-74 · October 18, 2019, 04:46:48 PM

I got the coupler back on with the steering column but i had to take off the coupler and reinstall it back onto the steering column then reinstall it. I also started sanding down the doors to bare metal so i can fix the old repair and dents.

@Cuda70-74 the steering coupler looking that way, makes me feel better!
