Power Steering Column Universal Joint

[newdean0 0]

I've replaced the steering rack on my car but there is still slack in the original 160K universal joints. I don't really fancy buying a pattern whole lower column for £47 +VAT and I don't reckon there'll be any 205s in the scrapyard with joints in much better condition than mine. Has anyone found somewhere you can buy compatible UJs from, or is there a more modern peugeot I can rob the UJs from?

 

Cheers

Here in Bulgaria, you can find u-joints for a few euros.

Note, that the joints come in several sizes and you must strip down yours to find out which size you have.
