I'll probably order one up shortly for the impending 3rd gen project. Let me know if you get low on stock before I get one ordered.

You list it as 1983-1992.... is there something different about the 1982's ???
Mine is a '82 and the pics on the site of the installed unit look similar I almost hit PAY but then noticed this, any help would be GREAT ! ~DaVe |

I thought the first 3rd gens were '83s. Did I miss a year or is the '82 a 2nd gen?
I should get low in stock for quite some time Kevin, so no worries there. Thanks Nick! Jason S. |

82 was the first year of the 3rd gen, but it was the "oddball" year with different transmissions and such. Some parts don't fit, but most do, or can be swapped. I can't say if this will or won't. I think it will, but I'd not want to swear to that and be caught out by some goofy first year only part. Someone else might come along with better info.

Let us know Dave and I'll modify the website. I'm not sure Jeff. I'm having trouble comming up with something that I can build and offer under the CMC cap that is worth having. Thanks!

Hey John,
Glad to hear it. That's the same comment everyone who installs one has. They didn't realize how bad it was until they replaced it. Thanks again guys, Jason S. This post has been edited by Unbalanced Engineering: Feb 16 2007, 04:11 AM |

Got mine. Very nice. Now, I just gotta figure an easy way to cut the factory studs and replace it with everything still in the car.

We always have the rag joint eliminators in stock for both 3rd and 4th gens. They usually ship the day after you order with USPS priority mail. The cost is $36 + $5 shipping. Check the website for ordering info. Thanks!

Thanks Jason,
Is the swap pretty easy? On a scale of 1-10? Alan told me how to do it in his shop the other day but is it easy to get the old one out of and back into the car? Thanks Evan |

Hey Evan,
Everyone's scale is different. For me it is definitly a 1, but a 10 would be a motor rebuild or something of that nature. It shouldn't take more than 1-2 hours to pull the steering shaft, drill out the old rag joint, install the new one and have it back in the car. It comes with very detailed instructions. Hope that helps! Jason S. |

Put in my order tonight.
I was cleaning the box and shaft for paint before reassembly and realized how bad the 22yr old stocker is. I might as well fix the problem now. |
