'60 rag joint replacement

[David Greenburg]

I need to replace the rag joint on my '60.  I've found several references to the Lares #201 as fitting this year, among others.  Has anyone used this?  Happy with it?  Also, how much disassembly is involved to replace it?  FSM doesn't address this specific job, and I'm trying to budget my time; obviously much quicker if steering column doesn't need to be dropped.

Not sure if the '60 has one side of the joint rivetted to the steel flange, and the other side bolted.

On my '60, it was bolted to the flange on the Steering Column, but I cannot see clearly from my pictures the attachment method to the Steering Box.

As my car was a RHD Conversion, when they swapped everything over, they might have done something different to mount the column to the box.
