steering shaft.
 

ok, so my steering shaft is dangerously pooched. I found out that they are
about $200CAD new. There is a Jeep wrecker that has a bunch for $50, I'll
give a used one a try first to see if I can some life out of it.

my question is...Are these as straight forward to change as they look? id
there anything I should keep in mind when changing it?

thanks

Straight forward, leaving one loose bolt to hold the steering box
to tilt down will give another hand on assembly, usually takes a bunch
of tries to get the spline correct so it'll slide on.
