Thought I might share my renovation progress with you all Vicarage steering rack conversation, unfortunately my steering box was beyond repair and Alan who worked for Jaguar for many years in the early days recommended this conversation if I was happy to go none OEM.

 

It looks a neat installation (as does all the other work on your front subframe). What is the origin of the rack? I think they used to use one from an XJS, but what you have looks more modern. Let us know how it feels and performs when the car is back on the road.

 

This kit is supplied by very very reputable company in UK with years of experience
very competitive price compared to the big name suppliers out there, about 4/5 week normal lead time as made to order, you do have to cut and weld chassis to enable new steering column u/js to pass

 

Can vicarage’s power steering pump be fitted on an alternator ?

 

Sorry your best bet is to communicate directly with them, you can find them on internet 😉
