It has been almost a year since anyone has posted to this. So, here's a post to bring this to the top. 
I would like to wish each and everyone of you a Happy Thanksgiving and may you be blessed with good times with your families.

I couldn't figure out why you wanted steering box scrap (junk yard scrap). There were so many pages on this thread. I read the first one. How wrong I was.

FB has taken over. We tried hard to keep the forum up, but you can't compete.

The SBS has been around for more than 10 years now. With Facebook taking over the internet. Except here of course, we've opened a public page for all you scrapers.

Well, the LHD beetle rack is a no go.
Has anyone used golf mk1 racks?
That's another option for me. |

I have seen the red9 design one, but they're using A wishbone, and someone told me he has a LHD super beetle steering rack, and someone has the volvo 240 rack for me.
I don't have access to a vanagon rack though, that's why I didn't ask about that. |

Searching through topics, this was probably the best in which I could post this question.
I am driving a RHD bus, and searching for a viable solution to swap to R&P from the stock RHD steering box.
I've already managed to get the vanagon bevel box and an early bay steering column that I can use for this swap.
Can I use a LHD 1303 steering rack in such a swap?
I'm searching for a suitable steering rack to use.
I've a volvo 240 manual rack available to me, but the tie rod ends are on the end of the rack and not centered. Would there be a problem with bump steering on such a rack setup? |
