A better solution is that somewhere there is a GM steering box on another vehicle that is already the mirror image of a standard CMP one. CCKW's being left hand drive gave me some hope for this but it is configured the same way.

Alternatively, if I can't get one working, I would want to reverse a casting for cosmetic purposes and leave the guts out. Then I run the risk of somebody trying to use it only to find out there is no steering at all!
Now Parker... are you going to tell us what the hell you're up to? :
