Ok, i'm thinking about eventually swapping my truck to rhd. my girl saw 2 at slamfest and fell in love with them. i've always loved it. how much work is involved? i know the Holden Rodeo is the same, for the most part atleast, to my knowledge as the pups. wouldn't i be able to just swap front clips? how would i go about finding one? what other methods are being used? i've never really looked into do doing one of these conversions. all i know about them is the brief moments i was in the shop when a friend was swapping clips on a 240sx a while back. thanks guys.

If you wanna convert to a rack and pinion then flaming river would be the place to go they can custom make you one. If not you can use stock parts you may have to machine your drag link on the oposite side to adapt your pitman arm to work right. Don't use a steering box from a jeep becuase the parts don't match and it will be a frustraiting ordeal getting everything to work. You cant flip a left hand drive rack and pinion because when you turn left the truck will then turn right. You can take a rear left hand drive and flip it but once again you will have to get all the mechanical aspects to work together which can be a pain in the ace!!! Hope this helps I got a guy down at the shop with a PUP thats RHD we used all stock parts. Sorry no pics at the moment but maybe in a couple months I know thats to long but theres other people that have started a topic on this. Maybe they can throw up some pics.
