RHD to LHD . Anybody done it ?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Slimer:
Likewise on my LHD Series III 109", gear lever, hi-lo, hand brake etc. are in the same place as on a RHD. You just get used to it, gears are central either way.

Canada Al:
The FC is a bit different , no trany tunnel for a start . The Hi/lo and 4x4 are mounted remotely about 4 or 5 feet in front of the gearbox . But I do see your point . I think they will be fine where they are . Merry Christmas by the way .........Al

Lee_D:
Bung some power steering on to it.. assuming it doesn't already have it. Would be a great improvement on the unpowered steering and give you more time to dedicate to pumping the brake pedal. :roll:

Canada Al:
Power stearing would be good , but I have no room cos the box is hard against the headlight . I am trying to look into power boxes from other makes . Any surgestions ? I have tried a ram on the track rod but that was way to scary . :shock: Just another thing on the list I surpose .

Lee_D:
Can you rotate the drop arm then shorten the link to the relay (assumes you have a relay).

Martyn Bailey has uses a Disco box I think on his 101 Ambi, details here

I've also heard of folks doing 101's with LDV 200 van Power steering boxes which I'm led to belive is a simpler operation but never seen one in the flesh.

Chris Perfect was doing kits for Series Landies using a Ram but I'd heard mixed reports on these when in use. Maybe these would lend themselves to youe application but seems you've already been there and done that.
