I need to replace the steering arms/rods on my CJ6, being a genuine RHD they are completly different to that of a LHD or the Haynes manual, from the pictures below can anyone tell me what parts are needed and what each one is called so I can buy replacements. I think the shafts will clean up but its all the tie rod joints etc that I need.

you need a full set of tie rod and drag link ends  the one in the last pic is a special one for right hand conversion that i think can now only be got from light house but they used to use its rarity as an exscuse to bum you


i have a fire new one on the shelf  but its my spare sorry

Lighthouse quoted me in October last year

2 x tie rod ends £8.85 each (presumably right hand thread)
1 x tie rod end £34.50 (presumably left hand thread)
1 x RHD track rod end £40.45 (presumably the fancy one)

All plus VAT and postage 

By the way if you are thinking of fitting power steering at any time you need to put a scallop in the front cross member (like the opposite side has) to allow for the hoses. Better to do it now than be swearing at it later

Thanks for that, yeah I thought it must have been a specialised RHD part, will give Lighthouse a ring on Monday, any ideas on what sort of robbery I should expect to pay?

Sorry just saw your post, that seems a little steep but I spose its a non US standard part.
