C5 Steering
I auto cross my C5 on occasion, is there a better universal steer joint where the joint attaches to the shaft coming our of the rack steering box?
I think that one bolt on the clamp is under a lot of stress, is there a better way or joint to use? If some one knows please help! 2001 C5
Thank you, DonC501

There is not that much force being put on this u-joint as the power steering system takes place after this u-joint and compensates for most of the steering force. No need to upgrade.
The input shaft is mostly just an input for where to put the wheels. The power steering takes care of the rest. Happy auto-xing.
