Chassis parts & steering today
Painted some of the chassis parts that will need to be returned to engineers to reassemble. Also parts for passenger step assembly. Not the step itself because I ran out of spray putty & couldn't be bothered driving into town, when there were other things I could go on with.
The second steering box was opened up and cleaned enough to find this damage on the sector shaft gears. Hopefully my other one will be usable.
I took this photo as I was leaving the workshop, and at a time when it was too dark to see anything. Examining the photo has given first insight into worm gear condition.........and I still don't know if it's good! I'll get it out and check it next weekend. Anyone know if steering box seals and bearings are still available????
