Re: When Did It Become OK to Mount R&P on I Beam Axle?

Unisteer make a rack and pinion unit that is a direct replacement for an original steering box. Does they make something for your vehicle? Click the link and ask them.
Try to remember that you are responsible for any changes that you make. Should something, of your design, fail and cause injury or death to another person, you will be liable. Your insurance company will walk on you so fast. It is in the "fine print".
You may be able to reduce your liability if you have your "repair" inspected by a certified person that your insurance company recognizes.
A mechanical inspection is the law, here. These inspections became law after home made junk became an embarrassment to some elected official when his voters were being hurt or killed by flying junk.
