Title: EARLY 110 3 bolt steering box, changing to 4 bolt, whats needed?
Post by: Niel on July 27, 2008, 12:09:28

Much swearing here, I need to replace mine sometime, the adjustment's almost used up, what do I need to swap over?

I think the hydraulic fittings are different, so new pipes for a start, so what else?

Anybody breaking a suitable donor?

My understanding is, 3 bolt is imperial fittings everywhere 4 bolt metric so basically you have to change all the pipework and possibly the pump fittings as well.

I just got a recon three bolt for mine about £120.00 if i remember right. Easy changed over in a couple of hours, it made a huge difference to mine
