LHD E39 Steering Rack

Recommended Posts

The bits are building up on the floor for the E21 Group 5 replica. We are going to make it LHD, so if anybody has a LHD E39 rack out there (and for sale) it will save me having to get one in from overseas. Just looking for the standard P/S one and not the Servotronic. Many thanks - Richard

presume your looking for the proper 6cyl rack rather than the 8cyl box?

Good luck with the search

Hi Jason - correct thanks. we are using a complete 6 cyl front end, but 540 brakes and a V8 back end, well sort of... E34 LSD and I gather the 540 E39 rear cover does the trick in terms of a rear mount.

Pretty sure there won't be a rack here, so it will be EBay or something.

Thanks.

Richard

Hi Richard, Glad you got your account sorted. Nothing valuable to add, but can you PLEASE document the build!

Thanks Ash. Not much to see yet. Have a runner M50B25 nv now and nearly all of the standard suspension bits, 540 brakes (will see how they go) and thanks to Kayne Barrie Motorsports, the loan of a 420g gearbox case and an E34 Large case lsd. Need to fabricate the diff mounting brackets and then the 2.4 x 4.8 jig table. Then we can cut all of the floor etc.. out of the E21 and mock everything up. Hope to start cutting tubes a bit nearer to Christmas.
