New style steering coupling

[Bradford]

My old steering coupling is shot so I'm replacing it with the new style that Porsche sells. It is obvious how the original one mounts up but I'm not sure about the new style since it doesn't have a solid mount all the way through for the bolts. In other words if I use the original hardware and torque it down it just compresses the coupling. Anyone have experience with the new style? Thanks

Are you missing these metal sleeves? I’m doing the same job on my oldie this winter.

[Bradford]

Missing the metal sleeves??? I guess I am, were the sleeves supposed to come with the coupling?

[VA_alfa]

Mine did. I purchased from Sierra Madre. Brand is JORG.

I haven't installed it yet so I don't actually know how it goes together, but the metal sleeves fit perfectly over the bolts.

[CDOUGLEHMAN]

Yes I did forget to mention the metal sleeves
If I remember They came with the part from Porsche.
Did you get your parts from a Porsche dealer?

[Bradford]

Yes I bought it at my local Porsche dealer. So you're saying it should've come with the sleeves?

[CDOUGLEHMAN]

I bought mine from Sunset Porsche in OR. I know I have them. Installed. I will check to see if I still have my old one.

the sleeves 100% should have come with the part.
