Listers,
I bought a DWM uprated steering box/shaft for my BJ8 several years ago.
I'm getting a round tuit to install it, but removing the grill looks to
be a bit of a pain. My questions:
1) A noted Healey shop told me they were able to R&R a steering box on a
6-cyl car--the 4-cyl grills aren't hard to remove--without removing the
grill. Anyone done this/know how it could be done?
2) Does the radiator need to be drained and remove, or can it just be
unbolted and move aside a couple inches (I did this on my BN2)? I'm
willing to sacrifice the bolts that hold the box to the frame if I can
avoid removing the radiator.
Any other tips and tricks welcome.
TIA,
Bob
