We have designed and manufactured this kit to allow you to build a new steering box for your 80" with only a few parts needed to be reused from your existing box (Inner column, Nut, Cross shaft and Stator tube).
This is a complete new upgraded steering box housing, 5 Axis CNC machined with Improved oil feedways to the outer bearing which often suffers from oil starvation. Tighter machining tolerances and a few subtle changes to give a little more steering lock.
Fitted with modern custom Oilite bushes and later style double lip Cross Shaft seal.
Side cover has been upgraded to include the adjuster bolt as seen on the later series 2 / 3 boxes so the cross shaft can be set up to give the correct amount of end float to improve the wayward steering.
New outer steering column with custom machined and hardened top bearing race.
New brass Stator Tube clamp
Thicker Cork/Nitrile Gaskets
Bulkhead Rubber Gaiter
Plus a full set of Genuine Land Rover top bearing components.
All the steel components have been zinc plated and painted to give years of corrosion resistance.
These boxes have been designed to run a High Moly based 75w90 oil and we have teamed up with Swepco Lubricants to supply enough oil for a few changes so this will help your newly rebuild box operating smoothly for years to come.
