Re: flexable coupling steering shaft
not sure what you mean.
Triumph or Marina?

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

Re: flexable coupling steering shaft
yes the band comes off AFTER fitting - dont do it before or you will never get it in place
whatever the car or coupling - that's how its done

Re: flexable coupling steering shaft
Standard part for a Triumph 2000 / TR4 / TR6.
Some are sold without the band, it is a struggle to fit as the fixing centres of the coupling are nominally larger than the steering shaft ends.
The easy solution is to find a large, wide jubilee clip or two attached together, but it can be done with G clamps.MOC member since 05/97
