I'm not sure about the borgeson shaft but you can just use a piece of wire to put over the kdp. When i killed the kdp on my pickup the only thing i bought was a new timing cover gasket and I ended up not even needing it.

X2 on KDP, you can also just peen the casing over the pin. When I got my borgson Summit racing was the cheapest but it's been a while.

this is a cut and paste from the TDR site. if you have a membership you can read the whole thing there. I have probably 75000km's on this mod and it works great. cheaper than a borgeson for sure.

"As always I am looking for a way to upgrade my '93 W350 and save money by doing it myself. I recently replaced the steering box after 220k miles and felt all the free play in the stock steering shaft joint, so checking around, the Borgeson replacement was about $260.00! After doing some home work I found that buying the yokes and joint thru Spicer and cutting the end of the stock shaft then putting in a 3/16 key did the trick. I spent a total of $56.00. The Spicer part numbers are 10-4-431SX and 10-4-13 for the yokes and 5-170X or 5-103X for the joint. I hope this save others a little money as it did me."
