Re: [DMCForum] Slip 'n slide

["Dave Stragand" <dave.stragand@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

They -do- sell it.  That's where I got mine from actually.  Stephen Wynne
figured out the problem right away at Cleveland and sent me one.  Once it
arrived, I realized I already had one -- I just thought it was for
something
else (my car also came with a lot of Volvo truck parts, an aluminum billet
rocket ship, and several deadbolt locks.  I assumed that this bracket was
part of one of the deadbolts -- it looks a lot like it could be.)  I'll
try
and get a photo tonight, but I made a quick drawing of it to the best of
my
memory -- http://www.projectvixen.com/images/steeringbracket.gif

If you look carefully under part 9 on
http://www.usadmc.com/dmcstore/ViewDir.asp?PageID=67
<http://www.usadmc.com/dmcstore/ViewDir.asp?PageID=67&PageCat=5%2DSuspensi
on+> &PageCat=5%2DSuspension+
and+Steering , you can barely see it under the bracket, but it is shown
(but
not numbered).
