Thread: Vega steering conversion

Tweet

Brian is right on the money and I've done several of these in the initial building of the car.
Right now I'm watching a friend do a Vega type steering box in a SBC powered A framed car.

Motor mounts are easy to alter if necessary.

As far as the right side steering arm goes, another way out is to use a tie rod end that has a tapered hole in it for the right side of the draglink.

It's a common Jeep part and Jeep mail order (and walk-in) shops carry them.
Speedway Motors carries them as well.

All that's required is a slightly shorter drag link.
Drag links are easy to alter or make from scratch - I do it often - and custom lengths are available.

Note the standard and tapered hole tie rod ends in the pic.
