Steering Column & UJ's

[Chassis 33]

I'm currently converting the racer from PAS to manual, I've got the rack and now found that the existing lower UJ has too large a diameter spline on the lower section where it clamps to the rack. Are the intermediate rods the same on PAS and manual column, meaning that if I get a manual lower UJ everything will work or is the whole shooting match different?

IIRC there are at least 3 variants of UJ's / intermediate / Rack used.. I think the steering column is 'std' though.

I know where a non-PAS intermediate shaft & even rack can be sourced if you are stuck Iain

I thought PAS Chimeras were sought after? Maybe you could do a part ex with someone wanting to upgrade?

Already have, problem is we didn't swap lower UJ's! Anyway after 123k road miles and a season racing mines probably fecked anyway!
