Hi, does anyone have a worm shaft and a worm shaft adjuster nut (the big one that has the bearing cup in it) from an HQ/J/X/Z WB steering box, I want to put them in my EK box so I have a set of splines to attach a collapsible column to. Also if anyone has an old seal that I can check the OD of to see if it will fit in the top of an EK steering box housing.
A HQ shaft has a slightly longer worm section on it but if I use the HQ adjuster nut which has the bearing fitted higher up the bits will fit in an EK housing and the EK ball nut will run on a HQ worm shaft, I just need to ensure that when I set up the steering that I make sure I set up the steering stops right because if I let the box itself go full lock the ball nut will rest on the housing on the inside if the box, which I don't think it would be a real drama but I will avoid it anyway. Hopefully the top seal will fit too but if it doesn't I am sure I will come up with something.
Any help would be awesome.
Cheers
