1972 f100 steering coupler

Post by corniglio »

i need a rag joint for my 1972 f100 2wd with power steering. i have searched for this and only found old threads that seem to be outdated. some threads mention the part is no longer available. does anyone have a up to date part number and source for it?

I picked one up through my local NAPA store about a month ago; it wasn't on the shelf of course, but was delivered to the store the next morning.

How much did you pay for yours at NAPA? I priced it there and they only had 1 listing and it was $132........ :eek: ............the kicker is i bought the EXACT SAME part from Amazon for $33.....just curious because there was no way I was gonna a pay that for a rag joint........

It was around $50 Canadian, so comparable to $35 US with the exchange. I had my local mechanic do the job for $150, And I bought the rag joint because he couldn't find one with his sources. It took the NAPA rep about 20 minutes to find one in their system.
