I bought a 36 spline Steering Joint from Dave Poske Performance for my 88 Crown Vic Steering box. It says its a 36 spline.
The joint came in and the part that slides onto the steering box is totally round. The steering box I have has a part that is ground flat plus the splines. The joint I bought didn't seem to want to go on the the other day when I tried tapping it on.
Kind of a dumb question but do you guys think I need to just smack it on harder or Should the joint be shaped more like a D like the shaft on the car is. I don't see why it wouldn't work but just looking to see if anyone knows for sure.
I see some websites that specify that there joints are for the crown Vic boxes, this one did not but 36 spline should be 36 spline.
