What is the name of this joint and where can I get one?

[Dustin Jackson]

It looks like the joint where the steering shaft connects to the rack has a torn boot and I can see the joint itself is starting to rust.

Where can I get a replacement?

I have the exact same issue, but I am going to replace the shaft along with the boot.

@Joseph Garcia Im looking to replace the entire joint also, cost almost as an entire steering rack. It looks like there are some cheaper versions for around $90 elsewhere but might as well get the good one

Free picture bump.

Between R/A huge selection, ez to use online catalog and pricing, I’ve become accustomed to their boring reliability.

The only thing that shakes the boredom away is having to go onto Amazon because parts are needed quicker. Then the wake up happens because Amazon’s loaded with counterfeit crap.

Same wake up happened going into Autozone. Here in SoCal they charge 50-75% more for OEM vs R/A.

@petethepug I agree, Rock Auto is in a league of their own.

Also they ship those little fridge magnets. I shop Rock Auto so often that I have 3 of the same magnet.

Make sure that you post replacement pics with dates because if you get a $90 shaft assembly, you will for sure do the R&R more than once.
