I started to do some work on my mom's 72 New Yorker after a long hibernation in her garage. The steering pot coupler has a a torn seal and needs to be rebuilt. I've done this procedure on my 70 Duster and it is the same process. I also want to take a look at the rag joint because the steering has to much slop even for a 70s over-assisted power steering system.
I don't have a FSM and I'm trying to figure out how I remove the coupler, intermediate steering shaft, and the rag joint. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I did a quick look through the FSM but I didn't see any info about the rag joint in it. Perhaps I'm just not seeing it.
 
I happened to have that manual. Page 19-41 has the disassembly/assembly procedure. No pictures.
 
Does anybody know where to get those bolts and nuts that are shown in the picture?
