This Dorman intermediate steering shaft is the link between the steering column and the steering gear, carrying the driver's steering input down to the gear. Dorman tests it to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and precision-machines it for a tight, secure fit.
An intermediate steering shaft may need replacing if you feel a clunk or knock through the steering wheel while turning, notice excess play, or feel a binding or notchy steering action. These symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose the steering system before replacing parts. If a worn intermediate shaft is the cause, this unit replaces it.
