Re: Facts about steering slop....
A camaro intermediate shaft won't mate to the steering column... Your best bet is to hit a bone yard and grab one from a 3rd gen trailblazer/envoy Lower miledge...

Re: Facts about steering slop....
besides, you should go with a newer zq8 box..(same as the camaro z28 box) because it will also have lower miledge... Was the camaro box you were getting from an Iroc? If not it will be a standard 14.7:1 box and not the 12.1:1 box you're looking for..

Re: Facts about steering slop....
I'm considering renting a trailblazer from one of those $20-$40 a day rental places and swapping out a few parts.
