The steering on old Betsy was getting mighty sloppy, so I checked and the flexible steering coupler is shot. I see I can snag one complete assembly easily from corvette central or even a rebuild kit to re-use my hardware and just put in a new flex part. $84 vs $13.
My question is - are there any 'gotcha's' that I am likely to run into if I try replace this myself? I'm just a DIY mechanic pushed into action when the situation warrants it, so I'll have to read up on how to go about it. Definitely not a pro like many others here, so any and all cautions/advice/tips and methods appreciated.
The patient (or victim depending on point of view) is a '76 350 L-48 smogger.....all original and this has never been apart so it 'could' be stuck on pretty good.
TIA,
