Default Name this part - rag joint

Picked this up from a forum member. Pretty sure it's for a C2. What says all knowing CF. also, is it GM or aftermarket?

It looks like a 63-66 coupler for the standard column (tele columns used a different coupler).

The 68 coupler should have an upper flange, similar to the 63-66 coupler that CA-Legal-Vette posted, but the lower flange of the 68 coupler should be the short flange, pictured below.



This is the steering coupler used on all 67-69 Corvettes, with the round shaft steering box, and the cast iron top.
