    This mornings project with pictures

    This is an adapter for my 1/4" drive inch ounce torque wrench to the steering box input shaft.
    I didn't want to take the time and effort to broach the splines so I just used the major diameter and a set screw for the shafts undercut.
    A bit of lathe work, drill an tap a couple of holes

    On the input shaft

    Torquing to specs

    Sad to say Bako is 2500 miles to my shop and 1800 to BB’s stomping grounds.
    Sure would be a blast hanging with you guys.

     Very nice work and very resourceful. Oh to have a shop with a lathe and the knowledge on how to use it. Jealous!

    That little thingee is a no brainer Ron, the the hammer you made in high school shop class involved more skill.
