Steering box etc...
Sector shaft 1.jpg Sector shaft 3.jpg Worm gear.jpg
Pulled apart the other steering box today, and found both the sector shaft and worm gear are almost perfect and certainly worthy of use. Steering box case primed.jpg Box case also cleaned thoroughly and primed. Thats as far as I can go with it until I locate a new seal for sector shaft. Betwen the two boxes I have now disassembled, there are two very good bearings that I can use (both the worm gear shaft bearings are identical). Chassis stand.jpg To top the weekend off, I have done one of the stands the chassis will be sitting on while I re-install some of the sub assemblies. It would be nice to put this stand to use some time in the near future. I believe next week the work willl start on chassis blasting & repairs. The stand has been designed to raise & lower using a bottle jack and the 4 locking pins. There's around $100 worth of materials used. Other one will be more costly, I ran out of MIG wire today.
