On older factory applications, a flexible coupling was used to attach the column to the steering box when there was perfect alignment. If the original column or box is changed, the stock coupling may not work. If a conversion from a long input steering box to a short input with an aftermarket column is done, a flexible coupling needs to be added. Borgeson offers the largest variety of spline and double D sizes to fit most applications.

Founded in Torrington, CT, Borgeson® began manufacturing universal joints for lathes and milling machines in 1914. By the 1920s, Ford was using Borgeson universal joints for the steering on some of their prototypes. Borgeson Universal continued to develop and refine u-joints for industrial, aerospace and OEM vehicle applications. When purchased in 1982 by the current owners, two avid Street Rodders, Borgeson soon began developing applications for Street Rods. Borgeson has continually improved and developed the original needle bearing universal joints into the most reliable, smoothest operating, strongest u-joints you can buy.
