Brand New steering column linkage for BMW E30 conversion to BMW E36 / BMW E46 / BMW Z3 power steering rack. Ideal for M50 / M52 engine conversion.
Perfect if you need extra header / exhaust clearance or just want to do away with the sloppy rubber bush while using your stock E30 steering rack! Yes, that's right! - our UJ is adjustable in length that is why it fits also stock E30 rack.
Your BMW E30, E36, E46, Z3 Steering rack male shaft is always same - count spline is around 54 small tooth splines and diameter is 17.5mm
To fit this UJ, your steering column male shaft has to be also 17.5 mm diameter BUT count spline must be around 36 tooth splines.
You will be able to see the difference in count spline (between the rack and steering column) just by looking at it. As long as you can see that steering column has less splines than steering rack and the diameter is same - it is all good!
