RHD from the UK
Not huge numbers of these available over on this side of the pond. Mine's a '99 LT, pretty much loaded up. It's even got a posi rear end...
Think they are pretty much the same other than having the steering wheel on the wrong side. As a result, several parts don't interchange on the steering; steering box is some weird set up and the centre link and pitman arm is different. Other than that all the running gear is the same.
I have a lot of slack in my steering box (about 1.5" of movement on the steering wheel) and I got a spare RHD one thinking about rebuilding it, but its completely different to the Saginaw in the LHD one. There's no pre-load adjustment on the input shaft.
Anyway... pic for attention.

This is the steering box from a rhd - think it's a delphi one, but I cant find any info about it.
Most of the other stuff is the same
