steering question. Reversing tapers.

Post by shortylux »

Have some of you clever Canty boys have had the taper reversed in your steering arms? So that one could put the tie rod end in from the other side?

If this is possible, can it be cert'ed and who in hamilton could do it? what should I expect to pay?

Any info much appreciated.

any half decent machinist can do that for you, maybe a couple hours labour charge.
If you already know everything, DON'T ask bloody questions!!

Cheers Guys.

Have decided to do it the proper way and move the steering box. :roll:

Will be better in the long run.
