That is a different coupler from what the left hand drive USA cars use. It looks to be just a doughnut made reinforced rubber, and bolted to each side of the connection.

Years ago I made one of these couplers from an old tire for a friend’s 1937 Rolls Royce’s water pump drive. The hardest part was cutting it out.

Pentastar has one that looked similar for HALF the price:

Does this look like what I would want to replace my worn-out RHD steering coupling in the picture above?
