AUSTIN HEALEY STEERING BOXES

Steering Boxes

All new Steering Box for Austin Healeys, from Denis Welch Motorsport, made from new drawings to an exacting standard.

Over many years working with Healeys we have rebuilt literally hundreds of steering boxes and there was always some element of craftsmanship and engineering know-how required to make a good job, and with a complete re-think, we felt they could be made to perform more smoothly and reliably.

The root of most Steering Box issues is the casing which is often a less than perfect piece of engineering. We therefore set about acquiring access to original works drawings for reference and started from scratch.

New CAD drawings and a brand new casing, based on a blueprinted original specification meant that our constant clearance worm (designed by us some years ago) could now be installed in a completely new box, along with many other subtle refinements.

By providing professional industry-leading tolerance drawings for every single component, has allowed us to produce every item in-house under tight quality control, and therefore has a reassurance that the parts fit together correctly first-time and every-time.

With modern computer controlled 5 axis machining we can produce a wholly superior product that outperforms all others on the market. Our constant clearance worm is exactly as you may expect, it has no tight spot, nor does it have increased clearance on lock. Like a steering rack it has the same feel and clearance on full lock as it does in the straight ahead. It is as close to the feel and response of a modern steering rack as this peg and worm design can be.

The safety column option was developed by Denis Welch Motorsport some years ago, when experience of accidents indicated that a full column travelled back towards the driver under head-on collisions. To reduce this problem we produced a conversion incorporating a universal joint and body-mounting clamp together with steering wheel centre boss.

The new columns are available as left or right-hand drive, adjustable or non-adjustable steering wheel, high or standard ratio, safety column or standard column.

IMPORTANT: Please note if you require the Safety Column conversion the horn and indicators must be moved to the dashboard.

A direct replacement for BN2-BJ8.

SAFETY COLUMN STEERING BOXES

The safety column option was developed by us some years ago. As a result of head on collisions, this indicated that the full column travelled back towards the driver. To reduce this problem we produced this conversion incorporating a universal joint and body mounting clamp together with a steering wheel centre boss.

This is now offered on our new Steering Boxes or alternatively we can convert your existing column to a safety type if you wish.

IMPORTANT: Please note this requires relocating the horn and indicators to the dash board.
