On a brighter note... Who's been asked to retail Zanfi's products? :ohmy:

Excellent!!! hurry up then Dave Christmas is coming and I need to do my list

Zanfi prices ! Only the Italians have the nerve to charge €1100 for a set of Chinese gears and a mounting cradle . My sums says thats about £800 for £380 set of gears lol.

Hmmm...

I managed to get the pitman arm off today -



Forcibly in the end as there was no way it wanted to come off...

But...



Having got the Zanfi drop pitman arm on, the steering bar and the rod end are sitting almost on top of the panhard rod... which is obviously not going to work as if the passenger side of the axle rises up it's going to cause the panhard to foul on the steering arm?...



That's how close it is?!

Compare that to the left hand drive installation -



Currently looks like I may have to take it all off again?...

Lucky there's a pitman arm donor on the drive -

The panhard rod repositioning braket on yours Dave looks shorter than the one in the left hooker photo, Judging by the bolt holes of the original panhard position to the new dropped position. It could just be an optical delusion or photo trickery?

Having looked at the Zanfi site pictures it would appear they are the same.
