Dorman 425-185 Steering Shaft Compatible with Select Cadillac / Chevrolet / GMC Models

This saved me a lot of $$$ and helped my steering play considerably. The best part was it wasn't difficult to install. Fit perfectly too... 1999 Chevy Tahoe with 340,000 miles on it.

Repaired 1997 Chevy Z-71 pickup with over 400,000 miles. Just a couple of bolts and new part fit great. Now steers well. Excellent value.

Pretty straight forward install but the blk cover supplied would not fit had to reuse the stock plastic cover.

Made my 1995 Chevy 2500 pickup easier to drive for sure! It was drifting in the driving lane pretty bad but now it tracks fairly straight. Nothing like it was. Of course it's not perfect (old truck) but 90-95% better. I'm satisfied with the purchase. Also saved $50-$150 over local auto parts store asking prices.Installation note: the OEM part came off (or goes on) the splines on the gear box with bolt only loosened. This Dorman replacement shaft would only go on (or off) with bolt out due to the slightly lower hole position. Other than that initial headache, it was an easy install.

Perfect fit on a 1998 Chevrolet Suburban

Cheaper than Oreillys and worked perfect on my 98 K2500 Silverado.

Almost perfect need to know item will extend to fit perfect .Install Bottom half first but you will need to install top bolt to keep shaft in place some slight tapping may be required when installing top you can slide rubber sleave down to apply Vise grips to shaft to tap into place then Remove upper Bolt to set . Bam Your Done other than that Time Will tell

Wow what a difference in steering tightness on my 2000 Yukon. If you tightened the slack up in the steering box and you are sure your pitman, idler and all tie rods are tight then the rag washer in your steering intermediate shaft is probably the issue. Mine was complete junk after 265,000. I installed this and it steers like a new car. I had to very slightly open up the pinch section of the shaft where it goes onto the splines of the steering box and tapped it down gently with a wood dowel and a hammer. The side that attaches to the steering wheel shaft I just wiggled until it went on.
