It is an aspect of the present invention to alleviate, at least partially, the problems discussed above by a steering shaft comprising: at one outer end a inputs shaft of steering gear connector connecting the first universal joint to the inputs shaft of steering gear, at an intermediate position of the steering shaft, a steering shaft connector connecting the second universal joint to the first universal joint at a first preset phase angle; and at an opposite outer end a wheel connector connecting the second universal joint to the steering wheel;wherein the steering shaft connector is provided with a serrated interior that coincides with a correspondingly serrated shaft part of the first or second universal joint, for providing a discrete rotary position of the steering shaft connector relative to the serrated shaft part; and a first mounting aid for defining a relative rotary position of the steering shaft connector relative to the serrated shaft part.
