$65? Is that really cheap? What should I be paying? I just rang a wrecker and he quoted me $175 for the box and lines.

I've got an old holden pump of a 3.6 V6. Whats the chances of modding that to fit? The guy quoted $440 for the box pump and lines. I wouldn't mind getting out of it cheaper.

Sorry for the hijack love_mud.... :oops:

Is this going on a vitara or a sierra?

If it's on a sierra........
It can be put on the easy way or the harder way. I've seen two rag joints used to soak up the angle in the steering rod (vitara chassis curves, sierra one doesn't). Or Do What I did and make up a wedge and redrill and crush tube it.
Sierra ..
I will get a wegdge made up. I will be using the small uni joints to hook the sierra collum to the vit box.

If you could post em up that would be great ...

I will have to see if I can dig up the post from a few months back that had a picture of the actual wedge.,
