Default Still very much involved with...

...moving house and packing - but - I did happen to see two steering boxes for sale

I paid a hundred euros for the two and hope that should they be needed may be a bit of one of them will be OK



The seller was kind enough to box them up and send them to me - though having left the oil in the boxes has made the packing rather interesting (!)

This purchase is a massive gamble - could be a waste of money time and effort - I'll take them to bits when I get settled to see what kind of condition they are in: This could be a lesson of "be happy with what you've got".

The worm gear on the original piece has been "repaired" with epoxy which may or may not be a good fix (see previous pages if you have the will to do so) - if I've struck the jackpot there might be a nice worm gear in one of the two replacements <= Well that's the hope / gamble.
