Post by: POTASH on October 15, 2011, 22:23:06

i have just removed my steering pump off my 200tdi discovery, it is the bent arm one, i have a spare pump, but it is a straight arm one, is it possible to swop my bent arm onto the straight pump hope someone knows what i mean.

yes steering box :embarrassed: ive worked it out, im swopping the track rod bar, off the disco i got the straight arm steering box off so it will fit :smiley: ive changed the power steering pump first, still no power steering so im now changing the steering box, i also changed the pipes from the steering pump and from the steering box so when i fit the steering box theres nothing else it can be :angry:

So by now you can answer your own question? yes the steering boxs are interchangeable, the arms can be swapped between the 2 if you change the drag link, the drag links are different lengths though so you can't just swap the cast end.

Hope you get sorted.
