Not our usual line when it comes to specialist automotive repair work*
Steering box from the ex-TWR BMW E12 racing saloon circa 1977, actually a modified E9 (CSL) ZF/Gemmer manual unit, presumably chosen for its higher rate.
Basically irreplaceable, prior damage due to poor workmanship sometime in the last 40+ years.
Damaged needle races removed, outsourced hd metal laser welding to repair one pitted worm bearing track and then reground by us, badly turned (tapered!) sector shaft also reground parallel, solid bronze bushes to suit.
Reshimmed and ready to race again.
*Pre 1960's Burman Douglas bronze nut steering is our speciality, we hold all the original Leone tooling, casting patterns etc with the exception of Series 1 Land Rover, but we can get those on request.
Its that time of year again when the work experience requests start to come in.
Whilst we would really like to engage with keen school pupils and college students to grow their interest in practical engineering, we simply aren't big enough to have the resources to help.
We are now closed until Monday 6th January
