I agree with Nick. Steering column joints are designed to work in rotation only. They are not designed to take any axial loads as would be required in a gear linkage.

I think you are both right .... it will be subject to different loads but it isn't unusable if a good joint. All depends on the movement at the pins of the joint. I have seen some joints that are similar to a captive CV ... they would be great ... if a little over the top.

Anyone driven an old Mini with a sloppy gearchange ? Any decent steering UJ joint will be better and will last for a long time. What kind of loads do you get when changing gears ???? |

I think that so long as the engine doesn't move too much a steering joint would do fine. However that said I normally run with the standard tie-bar mount, one either side from engine to front member of front frame and ultimate mount and still have movement in the engine from the torque reaction.

Ive seen folk use ones out of socket sets! Just make either the uj or the link to fit and weld it on!

socket set ujs are a bad idea, you certainly wont drill and tap for a grub screw ,and welding the chrome moly is always going to be poor practice,
