steering shaft

[treehuger]

Here is the low down on an aftermarket steering mod to make the sticky steering go away after a PA 3" body lift.
It is from "Flaming River", its a Ford "slip shaft", the part no#FR1518-1DD. The specs for my 94 xlt are as follows:
the column is 1" DD
the steering box is a 3/4"-36(or 36 splines) it was $219 plus freight.
Its easy to install & unlifted Explorers and suspended would benifit from this mod.

Would this part number work for a '97?
Thanks,

Rod, Thats the same part number they gave me. Said you might have to trim the shaft if it is to long. They said $229 though on the price. Maybe this is $10 off week?

Ok sounds good, thanks Rob.
Anyone else get the Flaming River shaft for a 96+? How was the install?
