King Stubby

Been reviewing my planned steering mods so I decided to check with the few shops carrying Woodward steering parts on the availability of my wishlist. The weld-in stubs (ST201A), U-joint UA20201 and shaft SCA500 were readily available, but the 240Z specific U-joint UA20113 wasn't. From both shops I heard it wasn't in stock and that was it. No sign of attempt to actually order it from Woodward steering.
Which is why I then turned my attention to the Dutch distributor. They too had all but the Z-joint in stock but at least they mentioned they were planning to order it from Woodward steering regardless (if I would order or not).

Prices minus 19% tax:
ST201A € 9,- ea.
UA20201 € 73,-
SCA500 € 154,-
UA20113 € 73

Quite a lot more more expensive. But after giving it a short thought i bit the bullet and placed the order anyway. That'd be €394 incl. tax and shipping, thank you.
And guess what, today I received the first available parts of the order :)

both ST201A stubs fitted into the UA20201 joint

I hadn't done my homework properly though cuz I found out that the ST201A stub doesn't fit into the SCA500 shaft. Bugger. I should have studied the catalogue properly. I should have ordered one from the ST2011 thru ST2015 range (1" thru 5" length).
So I checked again on availabilty and Hydroline had the ST2011 in stock, which I ordered for €13.
