Topic: STEERING SHAFT COLLAR


autoluke    -- 09-10-2017 @ 5:48 AM
  I have removed the steering assembly on my 41 conv cpe, and noted a 1 3/4" steel collar around the shaft.

Need to know the reason for the part.

Suggestions ?

  If you are talking about the clamp at the bottom of the mast jacket, it clamps the mast (tube) to the steering gear.

  Are you talking about Part # 3532 at http://www.vanpeltsales.com/FH_web/flathead_home.htm ? Go to "Parts Drawings" then "Steering Gear" and finally the year of your car. If so, then fordv8j got it right.
