for ya mopar

although it doesn't seem to mention if the cost is just for the K frame conversion or they supply the rack as well

RHD uses a GM Holden rack

Dave

There are versions offered in the US for a LOT more money than that and they have problems associated with them which have slipped my mind at the moment.

But considering the work and costs against the slight inconvenience of being left hand drive I still don't think it is worth the hassle on a Yank even at that low price for the rack.

Good conversion for you Oz MoPar owners that already have the steering wheel on the correct side maybe though?

yeah bump steer like behaviour associated with wierd angle of certain bits
inside wheel turns in too far compared with outside one

this one is supposed to avoid the usual bumpsteer problems associated with the kind that are slung from a frame under the sump.

still if ya car is 24:1 or 20:1 steering ratio this brings it in at approx 15:1

and Mr Norris has a good rep in OZ even if he doesn't know the difference between your and you are

mind i can't talk

Dave

That seems a good price.

RRS do a kit for lots of US Fords, plus rhd Falcons and that is 2610 AUD.

Strangely, it is 2610 AUD whether is it manual or power.

Yeah that was it.

15:1 steering sounds good. It is a power steered rack yes?

There are some neat power steering pumps on the market these days.

usually manual

but i dare say if a holden had a power rack then they would get it to fit

this is the first advert ive seen from this lot

it used to be request basis only

turn up with K frame and tell em what you want done

core charge aint too bad either

still can't tell if the rack is included

and you need an adaptor made up for the column
