Let us know how you feel about the Borgeson intermediate shaft?

Ive been looking at them for a while, but i get mixed reviews.
The other alternatives are the Dorman one, which ive seen good reviews for, and i like the design with the notch down the shaft.
But the Borgeson looks a lot beffier and is advertised to reduce vibration

The steering shaft was one of the best mods I've done to improve the feel of the truck. The steering in my truck was very sloppy. I considered replacing the box, but figured I would try the shaft first, $$$. It did the trick. Tighten up the steering. Since the Borgeson is solid (no rag joint) you do get a little more noise from the steering, but not enough to complain about. Worked so well, I'm still running the stock box That may change soon, as I'm considering getting a little more serious with the suspension

Truck update: With other projects starting back up, the truck has moved into its parts hauler/daily driver role. I did “upgrade” the brakes by removing the old, out of date, ABS system. No more funny brake pedal feel. Rear disks to replace the drums are probably coming soon

Started this project a little over a year ago. It's been a fun ride, and more to come. Shot from a local cruise night
