Welding/machining help please

[Bruce Parker (RIP)]

The shaft coming out the other side will provide the correct direction. Given this is the secondary steeing gear...the main one is in front...it will only see use at 2 mph perhaps twice in it's life for demonstration purposes (the only other 'driver' control being a throttle).

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!
