Get the old shaft end and turn it down to a dimention to be determined by what Borgeson has for the id then cut it to 2 inches long press it on your steering box input shaft then push the Borgeson universal on mark it then take it off drill and tap a 1/4 20 hole through the universal AND the new bushing.You will need to put a flat on the input shaft so the uni doesn't turn when you don't want it to. Put it back on tighten it up and down the road you go.
