How To Remove A VW Split Screen Steering Box

Start by removing the horn button, remove steering bolt, drive the wheel of then remove the spring and wood ruff key and indicator housing,  release the knee mount bolts. Go back under and remove drag link and all bolts on the steering box itself then lift front of bus and remove whilst driving off the rubber and lower mount in cab.

 It would be easy to make it RHD at this satge.

 Just look at the state of this steering box - its been leaking oil for some time I think.

 So just the lower brake and clutch pedals to go now. Center of cab floor is solid.

 Found more tin worm around the drivers chassis to valance mount.

 Need to remove the heating insulation - does this stuff contain anything nasty???

Did a little panel beating up front but am struggling to reach the very lower nose. Its time to contact Danny to arrange for sandblasting but I should also cut away some of the rot to allow for deeper inner cleaning.
