The blue coating on my steering shaft got damaged when i pulled it out. It came right off in pieces. Is this something that can be replaced somehow? I put as much back on as i could, and jammed it in, but i don't think it's going to last. Any suggestions?
Thanks everyone...

Sir: somewhere in the archives seems I remember a feller that recoated his by dipping.

So i guess there is no replacement for the coating from the sound of it. I'll just leave it for now. It seems tight enough.

Chuck,
Your grey cells are still functioning well; the following is from Gene's website:
Quote:
Inspection of the shaft will indicate wear patterns on the blue plastic coating. Wear through the coating to expose the base metal
is probably the major source of play. The coating is thermal plastic about 10 mils thick and was probably hot dipped. (It is not
Teflon, since it will soften at too low a temperature). I have successfully recoated the shaft with a bisphenol-a epoxy resin and
hardener commonly used to coat table tops. This material flows thick. A single coat is about 5 mils thick. After hardening, it can
be sanded, yet it is tough and will not chip. It does bond with the blue thermal plastic. If the blue plastic is worn through, I
recommend stripping it and coating the entire shaft with two coats of resin. Let the shaft hang vertically to set for about 72 hours
at room temperature. Sand using a sanding block and wet/dry paper to achieve a snug fit in the yoke. Remember the only vertical
movement is the slight body to frame movement through 20 year old body mounts.

Rob,
The coating to use on tool handles that you indicated is way too soft. The blue coating is fairly hard yet allows the two halves to slip and not bind. The epoxy resin method that you posted may have a good chance to work, but the only real way is to get a replacement shaft. I know that Dave Lenzi was never able to find a company that could recoat damage shafts to his spec's.

If you want to pay the freight, I can send a unit that is better than what
you have.
The u joint might need to be replaced.
These will be trashed anyway as we do not rebuild them as we have new ones
in stock.

Why don't they take cores, strip and re-coat....surely it would be cheaper
for all concerned.

Daryn,
I have pondered a little bit, as mine will need some attention again down the road, and I've wandered if shrink tubing would or could work.
Shrink tubing are available in different heat ranges, don't know if the highest heat range is good enough. I've not spent a lot of time researching all shrink tubing available, nor do I have a spare slider to try with.
Just an unproven thought to ponder.

The best grease ( IMHPO ) for the the steering shaft and other grease points on your coach is the Valvoline Dura Blend Moly-Fortified Synthetic Blend Grease and if you can't find that the Caterpillar Desert Gold Grease. These have been used by many GMC'ers and many on this list with great results. These are much better than the Mobile 1 grease as they do not separate. N

Mike,
These are new parts that we sell.
Like I mentioned, some have either figured out as to where they can get it
coated and surfaced.

to replace..so why would a company be any different...<g>
