I have broken the mounting flange on my E83w steering box. How in this world do I get the steering box and column apart? |

Hi
I do have some of them somewhere, did I have your cast iron one? I collected a mass of steering boxes, still have them somewhere too, not seen for many a ayear now mind.
I thought of having some manufactured either cast or fabricated. I might go for the Fabricated route if I were you.
Rick do you remember where that good box I had broke, rather anoying as there was hardly any play in that one either!
NUX163, does yours have an adjusting nut for reducing play, I made some later ones have this too, it helped a bit, but not as much as I would have liked it to!
Cheers
