    At 1400 Euro it's not cheap, but apparently no chassis mods required.

    Also, have they thought about a good service / refurb of the steering box / relay / swivels ? and perhaps different tyres ??

    Looks like your basic "tractor" type power steering. I wonder how it would go with roadworthy?
    Also it says no chassis modification but I can't see how the bracket fits without drilling holes...

    tractor like

    Hi,
    yes agree it is like some tractors used and that was an advantage as a very simple bolt on job--there are a number of LR's with this kit fitted--maybe someone who has one could comment too. I know of a 11A forward control also with this kit fitted.

    I made my own from a Ford car valve unit and a ram from a disposal store. I think it was ex aircraft bomb bay door.
    This was on my 2A Forward Control and about 25 years ago but it still works OK but I need the valving looked at I think. Its getting a bit leaky.

    In Victoria the ram-type require engineering approval. It's dealt with in VBS14 (Vehicle Standards Bulletin 14 (VSB 14)) in Section LS

    Any type of power steering conversion will require engineering approval.

    Late 60s Holdens and I think Fairlanes (dont know about Falcons) had ram style power steering when optioned.
