Stamped numbers on steering shaft


Recommended Posts


Many thanks for the part number.  I'll give it a try.

I don't know what the steering shaft numbers mean.  Notice how the u-joint from shaft 194 is peened in place? The u-joints from my early steering shafts are not peened.  I hve a later shaft from a '72 that has the peened fitting.

So I guess the answer is no?

I don't even have a theory on the numbers. Not a part number, not a test number. Code for a date, but the third picture isn't four digits???

PS:Sorry for the thread jack

It's obviously making the data fit the theory, but if forced, I could still believe they are date codes... Reversing the numbers and reading from bottom to top:

7047 could be 7/4/77

6212 could be 6/21/72

491 could be 4/9/71

Like I said, probably making the data fit a theory, but that's all I got.   :geek:
