You possibly have a couple things going on. The knuckle stops do a couple things 1) They keep your inner tire from touching or binding on the leaf springs 2) They keep your Birfield joints from binding and breaking There are also internal steering stops inside the Saginaw Steering Gear...

Yes sir. He and I talk often, mostly on facebook messager.

I have to admit that's funny. I just blew sprite out my nose a little! As far as tech goes I don't mind sharing anything I know. I do have to give some credit though, even though steering is my career, I credit Jewell Bohannan for making me a cruiser head early! He hired me at his Cruiser...

My Saginaw Steering Gear Hose Kit 910815 (metric) and Kit 910816 (SAE Flare) uses Parker Hydraulics Industrial Fittings and Hose. I highly recommend these because they are sweeping flow style fittings rather than the square corner type of fittings. This is most important especially when using a...

@franklin40 that is the 13/16-36 spline input shaft Josh

Thanks guys. I have had another account for years but signed it over when I sold my off road shop right before I purchased AGR years ago. I also have a FJ40 rolling chassis resto mod project with power train installed that I am doing an install video on shortly so if its not against any...

I guess I would qualify as the Saginaw Steering Guru as I own Steerco, AGR Performance Steering. My company is the very last steering manufacturer actually manufacturing in the USA. I build and manufacture other stuff than Saginaw Steering Boxes, however my Saginaw count per day is 25-30 per...
