Re: DIY power steering write up ?

Thanks Chris, Yes I have fitted an adjustable column to my 'F - and that's how I know the earlier ECU is different :0 Different part number, too. I just think it might be useful for others if we can let them know for certain if the pulse module connections are the same for both EPAS types and I gues...

Re: DIY power steering write up ?

Well this is all very interesting and is certainly expanding my understanding of how ignorant I am! Chris, you're obviously spot-on about the need to use an MGF upper column on an MGB and especially those with the collapsible columns and the decreasing amounts of free space beneath the dash on later...

Re: DIY power steering write up ?

Once again, some cracking info there, Chris - thank you. You wrote: "The GPS road speed unit I subsequently bought usefully also included a 50Hz output for the simulated engine speed signal, which works perfectly." That is excellent news - one less gizmo to buy and fit. Is it this one? And...

Re: DIY power steering write up ?

That's a really impressive piece of work, Chris! You're putting a huge amount of time into making this work and, on top of that, it's all a very good 'read', too. Thank you. I can see the logic in using the whole MGF/TF upper column assembly but I'm planning on doing it rather differently, if it's p...

Re: DIY power steering write up ?

I've been planning to fit an MGF/TF PAS to my MGA rebuild for some time and, now I've been and gone and bought my first MGB for many a decade - very exciting! - I know I'm going to need to convert that as well. At my age, fings ain't wot they yuster be :). I would really love to receive all and any ...
