I’m having a hard time removing my old steering rag joint.
I removed the complete lower steering shaft, and the two nuts attached to the rag joint. But now I still can’t remove the rag joint, despite prying it a bit and letting it soak in penetrant. I don’t want to damage the steering pump by forcing it too much unless that’s what I really need to do.
Is there another bolt that I am missing that is still holding it in? It looks like the middle piece in the photos I took is holding it in, but I can’t tell if it’s supposed to be unscrewed or if it’s just rusted in place.
Any tips?
Thank you,
Rio
