An upper steering shaft forms part of the link between the steering column and the steering gear. It carries the turning motion of the steering wheel toward the gear. Signs this part may need replacing include clunking or knocking felt through the steering wheel, excess play, or a binding or notchy feel when turning. Other steering components can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the cause first. If a worn upper steering shaft turns out to be the source, this unit replaces it.
