The connecting shaft is the only thing left to do to complete the steering.

Looks like it needs to be about 38 cm long (easy to measure once you have the uni joints on). I've been told by Graham Docker (DRB agent in VIC) that the shaft only needs to be mild steel. So I'm just going to get some mild steel rod of the same diameter, cut it to the right length and grind the notches in the end. If you have a grinder it should be a piece of cake.

Then again the DRB price is only twenty something dollars. I just cant be bothered waiting for it to come from QLD.

I purchased my chasis/body kit in December 02. Its now on wheels. Used the torana diff but had it rebuilt with 3.9 to 1 ratio fine spline and LSD. All suspension is now fully rebuilt as are the brakes although I still need to make the brake lines and brackets.

I managed to get a 2002 model XR8 motor and 4 speed auto which has only done 4000km so I will be able to put it straight in without too much modification (will need different extractors and alternator mount brackets etc).

I have drilled most of the holes in the body work for lights etc but also had an accident which I need to repair.

So where are you at. Maybe we can help each other.

Cameron
