Hello,
I wonder if we are comparing two different things:  Using the ETKA
completely loaded on my hard drive, I see a U Joint for Power steering as
part # 281 422 417 which sells for $199.95 on BD website.  I'll guess this
is what you purchased Frank?  On the other hand, I see steering coupling,
part 251 419 417 selling for $14.95 on BD website, possibly what Larry
referred to.  Sounds like Keith may need the universal?  Cheers.
