Recently I've rebuilt my steering box , had a "bolt in replacement" but the bolt holes were 1/2 " futher apart so must have been out or a different model. Anyway took out the internals from the not fucked new 1 and put them in origional housing with some new needle roller bearings and a seal... yae the sector shaft now dosn't move laterally 3 mm
Now for sill rust , just 1 side , went on discovery adventure with angle grinder
1mm skim coat of bog dust through out garage
Where they brazed on the Wagon to a sedan body
can see old repairs stitched in front half of sill , hence all the bog
The inside of the bottom of the A piller is also rusty , hopefully can replace it when i have the sill off...
Floor pan still to come - turns out false floor (galv sheet metal) tacked in with pigeon shit over top of origional floor was a dumb idea from previous owner...
not looking forward to what i find under it
also need to figure out a good way to get the worlds supply of underseal off the underside... im thinking Liquid Nitrogen??
