It's bothered me at times; I've tightened up the mounts, but movement seems the same. Nothing has broken yet, but has surprised me in the past how much is moves compared to a later Series version. I've thought of welding on stiffeners if it ever cracks. =20 Regards, =20 Randy =20 ________________________________ From: series1-host@xxxxxxxxx.xxx [mailto:series1-host@xxxxxxxxx.xxx] On Behalf Of Mark Strangways Sent: Saturday, July 09, 2005 8:22 AM To: series1@xxxxxxxxx.xxx Subject: SER1 Steering box/bulkhead support =20 Hi All,=20 I am in the process of rebuilding my 1957 series one (very slowly!) and having removed the front wings, noticed that there is quiet a bit of flexing in the Steering box/bulkhead support. This is the piece which has three bolts to hold it to the chassis, and two to hold it to the bulkhead. My steering has always been a bit vague, but I would not have thought that this item should flex so much. I have not completely removed it yet (tomorrows job) so I suppose it could be cracked? As always, any advice more than welcome!=20 Cheers=20 Mark=20 'sunny' Halifax UK=20 ------_=_NextPart_001_01C5850E.8D93AD97 Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html xmlns:v=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" = xmlns:o=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" = xmlns:w=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" = xmlns:st1=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" = xmlns=3D"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">; <head> <META HTTP-EQUIV=3D"Content-Type" CONTENT=3D"text/html; = charset=3Dus-ascii"> <meta name=3DGenerator content=3D"Microsoft Word 11 (filtered medium)"> <!--[if !mso]> <style> v\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} o\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} w\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} .shape {behavior:url(#default#VML);} </style> <![endif]--> <title>Steering box/bulkhead support</title> <o:SmartTagType = namespaceuri=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"; name=3D"country-region"/> <o:SmartTagType = namespaceuri=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"; name=3D"City"/> <o:SmartTagType = namespaceuri=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"; name=3D"place"/> <o:SmartTagType = namespaceuri=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"; name=3D"PersonName"/> <!--[if !mso]> <style> st1\:*{behavior:url(#default#ieooui) } </style> <![endif]--> <style> <!-- /* Font Definitions */ @font-face {font-family:Tahoma; panose-1:2 11 6 4 3 5 4 4 2 4;} /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman";} a:link, span.MsoHyperlink {color:blue; text-decoration:underline;} a:visited, span.MsoHyperlinkFollowed {color:purple; text-decoration:underline;} p {mso-margin-top-alt:auto; margin-right:0in; mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; margin-left:0in; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman";} span.EmailStyle18 {mso-style-type:personal-reply; font-family:Arial; color:navy;} @page Section1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> </style> </head> <body lang=3DEN-US link=3Dblue vlink=3Dpurple> <div class=3DSection1> <p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 color=3Dnavy face=3DArial><span = style=3D'font-size: 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Mark,<o:p></o:p></span></font></p> <p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 color=3Dnavy face=3DArial><span = style=3D'font-size: 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>The same part on my ’57 107 = SW has a lot of flex in it too.
