junkyarddog Jan 29th, 07, 1:16 PM Talking about the shaft from column to steering box. Is the flange at the bottom of the shaft supposed to be pressed on to the shaft or bolted to the shaft to be a true ss? Mike at Year One looked it up but couldn't find any thing to confirm it one way or the other. Any help out there? Thank you, Lonny Rick_Nelson Jan 29th, 07, 1:20 PM Splined and bolted. Does not make a Malibu an SS however as this could have been changed out. Dean Jan 29th, 07, 1:23 PM The difference is between big block and small block, not SS or not. Rick_Nelson Jan 29th, 07, 1:32 PM Sorry Dean, my bad. I keep forgetting that you could in fact order the 396/402 in something other than an SS so in fact you could have a Malibu with that shaft if it had the LS-3. Thanks for clarifying and watching my tail. Rick sparky1698 Jan 29th, 07, 2:42 PM I wonder why they made a diff. shaft for big blocks? Anybody know? Jerry Briggs Jan 29th, 07, 4:56 PM The big block shaft has both lower and upper side of the rag joint removable so the steering shaft could be removed. Ask me how I know.:yes: Jb junkyarddog Jan 30th, 07, 5:48 PM Thanks All, for the info! Lonny | ||
