I started the adaptation of the Yaris servomotor and it looks pretty good, even if I still have a lot of work to do.

So I bought a set of Yaris RHD, as advised by PanteraDoug and a steering column of Ford Capri:

We can clearly see that the Pantera column is a shortened Capri column



I first quickly made a temporary support to position the unmodified servomotor and check the space requirement. I only needed to cut a very small piece of about 1/4'' at the back of the support.

I then cut the tubes of the Yaris servomotor and the steering column of the Capri is positioned all together.

The next step will be to machine a ring to fill the clearance between the two tubes and solidarize them. Then I will cut the servo motor input shaft and the Capri shaft and make an assembly of the two


I also ordered on Amazon a U joint to make the connection between the output shaft of the servomotor (5/8'' 36T) and the DD shaft and a piece of DD shaft.

I thus keep the entire original system of the Pantera absolutely intact that I will store carefully for if one day someone wants to return to the original.

I still have to find the place to fix the Yaris ECU and the Servtronic control module and make the connections.
