This can be used in engine swaps as well as BMW-powered track built E46 cars. Assembly includes custom spline ChromeMoly Steel low profile needle bearing U-joints at both ends and a 2-piece collapsible double-D shaped intermediate shaft. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This is a bolt-on steering shaft assembly to replace the larger diameter aluminum steering shaft and is made for off-road use only. The OEM shaft has a large rubber \"rag joint\" near the rack-and-pinion assembly that can interfere with full length headers in an engine swap, as well as dull the steering feel for track duty BMWs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003eALWAYS verify the spline count on your car's shaft ends before ordering. This replacement steering shaft uses our unique 17mm diameter \/ 54 spline U-joints on both ends. We have run into one non-North American market BMW customer with a manual rack in an E30 that had a 10-spline U-joint on one end. We do not make that U-joint, only this (much more common) 54 spline unit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vorshlag LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44908122243272,"sku":"A6-8513-01","price":524.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0210\/4203\/6785\/files\/Vorshlag-E46-Competition-Steering-Shaft-Assembly.jpg?v=1769352753","url":"https:\/\/svbimmer.com\/products\/vorshlag-e46-competition-steering-shaft-assembly","provider":"SVBimmer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
