This Borgeson steering coupler is a 2-inch straight steel extension used to join two shafts and extend a steering box, rack and pinion shaft, or column shaft, and can eliminate the need for a universal joint in some setups. It is welded or pinned to the un-splined end of a shaft; welding is acceptable because the coupler has no moving parts to damage and its steel resists heat distortion from welding.
