Hi, I'm looking for a manual steering box LHD used, somone can help me?

 

What car and what year ?

 

Sorry I'm really stupid. mk 2 (240 1968). I'm starting to converter from RHD to LHD.

 

Have you tried an internet search yet ?

I've found one in 30 seconds !

Ok Fraser, it's not difficult if you have £.1091 in your pocket, but I'm looking for a used steering box. maybe someone has updated the car with a power steering ...

 

Mauro, I think you'll find it difficult to find a LHD standard steering box, and if you do, it will inevitably need a rebuild. Reason I say this is because the last cars left the factory in 1969, 50 years ago. You may find one eventually, but it might be a long wait. . Yes, I agree, £1000 for the rebuild box is a lot of money, but is does have a new worm and nut and will also have new bearings and oil seals . Have you thought about installing a modern steering rack, it can't be hugely more than just replacing the existing box.

Edit
Found this on an ebay site. Its in the USA

They recommend stripping down and replacing at least the oil seals and gaskets. .

 

Hi Fraser, thank you, I did a thorough research before posting my question here.
I also find the US box, I like to experiment and I'm trying to put an xj6 power steering.
It is difficult to position the pump.
however, I continue my research with someone who upgraded ...

 

Hi, i do not know where you live (I am Sweden) but I have a few second hand boxes from scrapped cars which are Lhd. Both mk2 and also early mk1 with different ratio. Never had a leak on any of my manual steering cars but have resealed a few XJ’s. I like the manual for their robustness and simplicity although they are heavy to steer when parking.

 

HI Sventek, I'm really intersted to buy a LHD or changing with my RHD steering box for mkII. can you contact me for details? I'm In Italy. info@maurocorda.it Best regards. Mauro

 

Sventek,

I stumbled across this thread and I am looking for a manual lhd steering box for a mk 2 as well if you still have one.

Michael, I have more of them but let me confirm middle of next week. Let me know your e-mail and we take the details there.
