Default 1987 F800 Steering Coupler Assembly

Anyone have any ideals where to buy the kit or a new Steering Coupler Assembly for my 1987 F800? That is the only spot in the steering it has any slack. And need to get that taken care of.

Don't think theres one local for us. May be one a few hours away, will try to find them and see. But looking around today Thinking mine has the one that should have been in the recall with the steering box years ago. So looks like it should be just a U joint deal . Will see if it will fit and if so swap it out for the newer part.

If you call a dealer with your vin they should be able to tell you if theres any open recalls

WOW did not even think about that. Figured being its a 1987 Model they would not care if it still has an open recall or not. But will sure give it a shot. As it shows to be a recall on the steering box and looks like the old one is still on there.
