Final result desired:
This is the rear steering gear (photo copyright by James-the-Lucky) I'm trying to reproduce.
Unless somebody knows where there is an original???
The steering box and column swing on an arm bolted to the division plate between the engine and crew compartments. The 3/4" diameter shaft operates a fork that drives the pitman arm onto the sector shaft to engage the steering wheel.
Please-oh-please let two or three MLUers each have one of these in their garge so a bidding war for the best and lowest price may begin. But please do not wait until I dummy up a replacement before you break the news that you have one!!
