Thanks for the Pic Chris, did you follow the info on the british site re this conversion, did you have any issues setting it up etc?

G'day Warren

How did I do it?

I cheated and bought the CFL already converted.
The conversion is very well done and is the reason I bought it. It is magic to drive with no bump steer and still had a good turning circle.
The previous owner spent a LOT of money with an engineer to get it done properly and no, he didn't read the British site.

I intend to copy it for my new CFL van, and yes I will post pictures and measurements for anybody else who wants to do it. I have already bought another Transit rack off ebay for $100.

Haha Chris, I thought that might be the case (you not having done the conversion).

I am very interested in how it is done, as I'm looking to do it myself, so any and all info greatly appreciated.

About the Camira power rack.

I know a dude up here that says he knows that guy from RRS and that this conversion kit was originally invented using Camira racks. And that the guy got it all up and running by buying all the Camira racks he could find at wreakers. This bloke subsequently does his own mods to vehicals at home himself. Saw him fitting a commodor motor with power steer to a HT sedan in his garage, not bad for a guy in a wheel chair! 8)

By the way, I just wanted to say.

If everybody else is taking too long? Do it yourself.

That's my moto anyways! ;)

Peace!
