- 1971 Cougar (sorry) Convertible with 351c 2V
Hi guys, hope everybody had as good a week as possible given the circumstances. I’ve been making good use of your discussions via search and have learned a lot about this specific series from you.
I have a, cough cough, 1971 Cougar with a fixed steering column and dealing with my rag joint replacement has been a major pain. The Lares 201 and 202 don’t fit, and the Dorman 31000 is close but needs to be stretched to fit the original metal part with the splines.
Anyone here some up with a better approach on dealing with this, I think the fixed column owners here are in a similar boat.
Thanks in advance for any coaching and dope slaps if I am missing something obvious.
Tom
