Have you considered putting a RHD 2 tooth box in? I know they are hard to lay your hands on but it is possible. I have a spare pair of castings and the rest of them is available new.
Hi Mr Synchro. I now have a 30 steering box and I don't know it's quality status but the cog with the two teeth looks only marginally worn. I also have a 35 steering box but this won't accommodate the horn and light shafts. That does not greatly concern me as I would put on what is your modification, the spacer to hang the steering shaft onto the body and mount horn and lights plus turn indicators and temp gauge to that. Getting someone to do that maybe a problem. The legals don't worry me. I am open to suggestions. cheers, gary
