I'm planning to toss out the 2.3 and auto and fit a holden 202 and auto which I already have. Would the 202 be ok to deal with re the power steering? My Ph oh too one 470 triple 3 kurli (86 )  9:41 pm, Thu 6 May

Steveo, my camper runs a Transit rack, but bet this the new black jumbo runs a VN Holden!!!. I know front mounted it woud turn the wrong way, but the guys who did the swap but in a transfer box 3/4 way down the steering column attached to the engine mount ofcourse this puts it back in the right direction for turning.

Have they lengthened the rack somehow also? I wouldn't have thought a standard VN rack would be long enough.

Hi Stevo, yep will get a photo of it up, mate borrowed the van today as he needed a towbar, hasen't come back yet. Will ask David (busy) if he knows of these, as would be a good idea if needed to be replaced some time. Bas
Yes Rogue rack has been lengthened as per photo below. Bas

Seems like an awful lot of work when there are easier options out there although I suppose it's one way of ensuring you can maintain the factory standard wheel lock.

Think they just had the whole VN car and used all the bits they needed, doesen't look like much in the photos, but the engineer work is A1, close to a factory fit if there were to be one. The turning is good, but think the Transit under the Camper is a little better, just need to remember to make the turns a little sooner than normal.  :D

Is the rack it self actually lengthened? Or just the rods?

Shane if you look closely you can see the extender/converter - it has a male thead on one end and a female on the other.

Male end goes into the bedford tie rod end, and the femal end goes onto the rack.

so I would say that NO the wrack has not been lengthend.

If the rack hasn't been lengthened she gonna suffer chronic bump steer .I fitted up a VY rack to my f/end and had to lengthen it by some 70 odd mm and off set it to the right to get the turn circle central i would think a VN rack would be similar in length                       Cheers Neil

Warren is right, the main rack is standard, and sorry guys no bump steer, it works just fine, as I said before the Transit is a good swap but this works just as well, I guess not knowing much about this kind of set up but would think the transfer / bevel box has a lot to do with the out come, but on full lock there is about a inch before the wheel hits, so I guess the lock is as good as your are going to get.  Also look where the rack is mounted, its out in the front not close to the beam, the tierods also go up not down as standard, with the rack mounted so far foward it must help.
