Posted December 15, 20168 yr comment_508147 Unicorn: a mythical animal typically represented as a horse with a single straight horn projecting from its forehead. Alt.: a rare Datsun part, usually made of unobtanium. I took this rubber steering coupler from a 12/71 parts car recently. Its in amazing condition - the rubber is flexible and lively, NO CRACKS or other damage, no signs of aging, bolts/nuts are in perfect condition - no thread damage. I've used a wire wheel on the plates and bolts to remove rust, bathed everything in Metal Ready. I'd throw a coat of black paint on the plates but its too cold to paint right now. Offering it here to fellow enthusiasts before listing on any classifieds or eBay. Priced at $40, includes USPS Flat Rate Priority shipping.

I'm guessing this is for those that want original?

December 16, 20168 yr comment_508201 This might be one of those cases where rubber is better that poly for a street car. The polurethane ones transmit too much road feedback thru the steering column. The oem ones I am guessing are NLA.
