This is a universal joint style steering coupling, designed as a heavy-duty upgrade to replace the original rubber factory coupling on specified Nissan Patrol and Ford Maverick models. Located on the steering shaft in the engine bay, it connects the steering column to the steering box. The original rubber coupling can perish or soften over time, creating excessive play and a vague feeling through the wheel. Replacing it with this solid uni-joint provides a far more direct and responsive steering feel, eliminating the unwanted flex of the factory component.

Product Features

• Improved Steering Response: The solid uni-joint design eliminates the play and vague feeling common with the original flexible rubber coupling, providing direct and precise steering input.
• Enhanced Driver Feel: Delivers a more connected and responsive feel, which is a significant improvement for both on-road handling and technical off-road driving.
• Durable Construction: Built tough to withstand the harsh demands of Australian conditions, ensuring long-term reliability where the factory rubber unit can fail.

Important Installation Notes

• Installation is straightforward for a competent DIY mechanic and can be completed with basic hand tools.
• You will need to purchase 2 x 081208251E bolts separately to install this product. The bolts used in the original Nissan coupling are not interchangeable and cannot be reused.
