CHANGE OF THE STEERING

I shall tell a pair of councils concerning power steering, for smaller quantity of problems at installation:

- A direction of the entrance and rudder shaft should coincide with "native";
- The weight category of "donor" should be not less "recipient"
- To remember, that the "donor-unit" will be necessary integrating to "native" details of car

On my 243 I have adapted steering from BMW535, 1980 (body E12). Is a little changed drop arm and rudder shaft. But this variant not so good for " of mass introduction ", For of "the mass installation " more suitable and accessible unit was required...
After some searches the choice ended on the steering from TLC PRADO 76-78 with the right arrangement of a rudder (models for japan, UK etc.) was made. The price of the steering, in Krasnoyarsk, (second hand) ~100 euro.
Further - steps of installation of the steering

Now, on three ARO, was establish such power steering from TLC70 with the right rudder.
