Read… I’m playing with a bits and pieces and check them out and compare them and here’s what I found:
Powersteering assembly pictures in there US importer instructions is not the same power steering assembly as the one I got from the Netherlands!
just to keep them apart, let’s call the one US and the other NL (Netherlands)
US has a tube that is clamped on, and you can adjust the slot for the steering lock… You can turn it! NL has no adjustment. It’s all one welded piece!
the more I dig into it it seems like that there was a earlier version and a later version?!??
Later in the instructions the clamp is gone..
it seems like the mounting brackets were different too… I’m not hip about this one..
i’m not sure if we are talking about the same thing here..
there will be no reason to smash anything!
I will not go any further into this whole thing! It makes no sense to me! Maybe I have upgraded model… Who knows..
at this point I’m gonna abandon the US instructions!
