Description Overview
Improve steering precision and reduce the loose, wandering feel common in older Ford pickups with the Borgeson Heavy-Duty Steering Shaft. Designed for 97–99 Ford F-250 trucks, this upgraded shaft replaces the factory intermediate steering shaft with a more durable design that helps deliver tighter steering and more predictable handling. If your truck experiences excessive steering play, especially when towing, hauling, or running larger tires, this Borgeson upgrade helps restore a more direct connection between the steering wheel and steering gearbox for greater confidence on the road. Built with a heavy-duty telescopic steel shaft, this assembly features a billet-steel universal joint and a vibration-reducing universal joint to improve steering response while helping minimize road shock transmitted through the steering wheel. The telescoping design accommodates movement between the cab and chassis and can be adjusted during installation for proper fitment.

About Borgeson
At Diesel Power Products we not only sell Borgeson steering shafts we run them on our own trucks. They are a huge improvement over the stock shaft and will eliminate the shortcomings of the stock set-up permanently. BORGESON Universal heavy-duty replacement shafts are a vast improvement over OEM and can take anything you throw at them. They are so sure they will outlast your truck that they give you a Five Year Warranty

Borgeson assembly is so much better than stock because of the precision, zero-play, sealed needle bearing U-joint machined from a solid steel billet. It's not a cheap stamping like the OEM. Borgeson steering shafts telescope for easy installation and are permanently lubed and sealed. The telescoping shaft easily handles misalignment from body-lifts and extreme off-roading.

Most OEM shafts have similar couple/flex-joint design, so we now have replacement shafts for Dodge, Chevy/GMC. Ford and Jeep. Some feature a vibration reducer to isolate road shock. Installation is easily done with common hand tools. The tight feel of the BORGESON steering shaft assembly will transform the truck! Borgeson has been making the finest automotive, aerospace and industrial U-joints available since 1914.

You can find BORGESON universal joints on the fastest racing machines and hottest street rods in the world including:
  • NASCAR stock cars
  • Indy Cars
  • Drag Cars
  • Dirt Modifieds
  • Road Racing
  • Off-road Racers and more!
Wherever high performance, heavy duty, reliable steering components are demanded, BORGESON is there. All BORGESON truck steering assemblies are proudy made in the USA and carry a five year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

For your diesel truck this translates into a much tighter steering feel that will last. We have seen play in the sector shaft with as little as 5000 miles on a new truck. These shafts are a must for anybody with a diesel running tires ANY larger than stock.
