Description

Up for sale is this hard to find Mopar steering coupler clamp Part #2996935. This auction is for the spring wire retaining clamp only ( Steering coupler, cover and seal are NOT included and are shown to show clamp installed). This factory designed piece was required to be installed as per Mopar Dodge Chrysler Plymouth Technical Service Bulletin No. D69-19-4 in all vehicles using the 3 inch overall length steering coupler whenever the steering column or steering box was "disturbed for any reason." This was due to the tendency and frequency of the crimped on steering coupler seal cover to come loose whenever the cover was crimped on outside the factory. Many cars were coming back to the dealership for service and the technicians were having a difficult time securing the seal cover to coupler due to the small retaining tabs. This created an unsafe condition and allowed the seal to come loose and grit and water to enter the coupler. This ingenious clamp corrects this problem so well that the seal and cover are held rigidly without moving even before seal cover tabs are crimped over. Clamp installs without removing coupler from car and requires no tools to install,although a hammer or pry tool may ease installation because they are a tight factory fit, especially over new rubber seal and seal cover.
