LOL, was just reading this statement again, and again
"Sorry for the delay, and sorry pics. Best i could do. The lower joint on the steering column, was taken from the same angle. Its got about two inches of lateral movement, and a good solid three of vertical. "
Trying to decide if the one was the joint next to the box, or next to the column. You only have two joints correct?

The one on the column. The interior half of the column looks to be original. No tilt or anything. The shaft leading to the box has tons of movement and slop. Yes. There is two joints on the shaft leading to the box.
Im not looking for bling. I dont want tilt, i dont want any of that. I mean replace the shaft from the column to the box. As it seems to be a large area of trouble.

Ill put it this way. If you put both hands on the steering wheel and either tilt the top towards you or the bottom away from you, you can feel the shaft moving. You can shake it back and forth and hear it rattle.
READ the tech pages on the saginaw coversion, sounds like your missing the pillow block like mentioned before.
http://www.off-road.com/tlc/tech/saginaw/ one of the many writeups, but this has good pics.

Thanks for that. I had no clue what a pillow block was. I have one. If i could get a pic i would, but doubt it. Its beaten and broken. Its missing a big piece. I bet that is a lot of it. Where would i go about buying a new one?
