I wasn't aware of the extra bracket to support the steering column mount. My support had been reinforced with an additional piece of 1/4" plate before I bought the vehicle. I'm at a similar stage and waiting for parts to arrive.
I think that support was only fitted later to 2As, it is not a standard part for Series 1 but is a good upgrade. Waiting for parts … that sounds familiar
Hi, great video! Are you able to clarify which vehicle the later steering box which you fitted came from, mine in my 1956 86" has just given up in epic fashion, and I'm interested in doing the same upgrade. I've read many conflicting things online. Many thanks.
Thanks for watching. I don’t know exact details but I think it would have been Series 2 and early 2As upto suffix B, the outer column length is 23,5” , the later columns are 24.5 “ long
Great watching your build but not so great listening to the loud and somewhat unnecessary music. Just saying. It seems to be a vlogger’s must have unfortunately. Luckily you have cc activated so I can turn the sound off. Thanks mate. 👍🏻🙏🦘 P.S. Is your son not helping/learning as you rebuild?
Thanks for comments as always, it helps me improve my channel. My son is not helping on this build but he will help on “his” D90 which will be starting soon.
