ABSTRACT:
An adjuster for joining a ball stud assembly to the linkage bar of an automotive steering linkage comprises a threaded fastener attached to the ball stud assembly, a threaded portion extending axially from the linkage bar, and a tubular sleeve having internal threads which are threadedly engaged with the threaded fastener attached to the ball stud assembly and to the threaded portion extending from the linkage bar. First and second nonrotatable clamps are disposed about the tubular sleeve in the vicinity of each threaded portion and function to lock the tubular sleeve against rotation. The nonrotatable clamps may be placed upon the ball stud assembly and linkage bar in only one rotational orientation.
