Failed steering coupling Posted: Sun Oct 04, 2020 1:45 am     Views: 76      Rating: Not rated

This coupling was replaced about 14 years ago. It was bought from one of the major VW bus parts vendors and has no reinforcing fabric in it, so instead of cracking like the original VW couplers it just ripped apart. The steering really didn't feel too bad, but it allowed the steering column to raise vertically an inch or so. It is really scary that someone would manufacture and sell such a dangerous part.
