I put the original roll pin in the original hole, just to get the clamp to line up better.
The roll pin in the pic is in a new hole, on the opposite side of the allen set screw.
This new roll pin take advantage of the groove in the Borgeson splines.
Double secure. :thumbsup:
More parts have arrived... and a new exhaust. This is much better than the rotted out single oem exhaust. Picked up a Borgeson steering box from Peter Bergman with his adapter. This should get the steering feel dealt with. Just waiting on the rear anti-roll bar from Firm Feel and I can start...
I am in the middle of a Borgeson steering install on my 66 Charger. When I pulled the Steeering Column out I discovered the P O or someone has performed some wire splices on the old wiring harness. Im wondering if anyone is making a repop of this harness. I hate having to solder repair splices...
I'm confused. The thread title refers to a 2018 BMW M3, but your thread post says new M3.
Also, why compare a two door car to a four door car? How about compare the '71 RR to a 2024 BMW M2?
One step forward and two steps back.
The Borgeson box does not sit at the same location as the original box.
So now my sector support is off about 1cm.
Time for some coffee and think about what the solution will be. (I do not want to drill in my K-member again.)
Edit: Does anyone here that...
I've been giving some consideration to the Borgeson retrofit power steering box, but it requires shortening the steering shaft itself, which is not something I am really keen on. Whenever I change something on my '67 J-code car I only do it if I can put it back to original, and with the orginal...
...I have a 71 chally that was converted to a unisteer rack & pinion when I bought it. Dont do it. It’s so horrible I’m reverting it back to a borgeson and bought the entire steering parts from pst: fast ratio steering, torsion bars, lca rebuild kit.
The damn front tires toes in on first gear...
...same for about the same money. It fought them the entire time though, had to do it 3 times (I have all 3 print outs). Everything new with a Borgeson kit I just put in. Most money I ever paid for an alignment but I will say it's the best driving/ handling mopar I've ever had in the 30yrs of...
No, if you don't strenghten the original steering box support on the K-member, like Kern Dog did, you will see it move without the sector support, especialy with wider front tires.
...prepped torsion bar car. The money it costs might be worth it if there was a notable improvement but there isn't.
Also, regarding the Borgeson swap....You made a few mistakes on that. It does not require the user to modify the steering column. Peter Bergman has been including a hybrid bolt...
...needs to be rebuilt. Car is believed to be all original. New Interior from Legendary Interiors, New Carpet, New Gauge Cluster from Instrument Specialties, New Borgeson Power Steering, New Bumpers Front and Rear from Auto Metal Direct. I will load a bunch of new pics over the next couple of...
My 65 is not done yet but I'm using a Borgeson box that I got from Peter at BAC, one of our sponsors. My car is an original p/s car. My updates include an Indy low deck all aluminum wedge. Same block they use for the Hemi. No clearance issues, actually better than the stocker. The pump I'm using...
