Technical Board / General Technical / Bench testing steering columns

I bought a HR Column to day to get rebuilt to replace the worn one in my FE. Aside from looking daggy, the adjustment screw appears to be most if not all the way out and it feels "tight" on turning it. I would like to confirm properly if there is a way before fitting it.

Thanks Guys, no LEDs, I think Errol62 might be close though. I did have to disconnect the horn because it would go off randomly when turning corners. Looks like a rebuild and rewire of the column is in order

Weird intermittent issue. I have an aftermarket wiring loom, one from the USA (one with the writing on the wires). Everything works, the problem is with the indicators. Short trips they are fine, on longer trips or intermittent driving throughout the day after a couple of hours they will stop flashing and just stay on, then later in the trip or the following day they work normally. I have tried 3 or 4 different flasher cans and all do the same. The flasher cans do not get hot, I have changed flasher cans when it happens to no effect.

Technical Board / Modification Help / The "best" way to adjust a HR steering box.
|

I know there are a couple of methods aside from the factory method, but what is the best way to adjust to get the best steering response without destroying the box? One video (generic box) says to undo the locknut, tighten screw until it just stops, lock off and drive. Another video says to undo the lock nut and tighten the screw in 1/4 turn increments, test drive, adjust again until optimal. I haven't read the factory way yet as I don't have a HR manual, but I want to know the best method that is going to give me some confidence in my steering.

Technical Board / Modification Help / Stub Axle ID
|
on: May 11, 2017, 05:19:20 PM
|
I have a pair of stub axles that I believe are HR, marked 26019 and 26020, another page IDs them as HR but I want to double-check. Also, will my current LH Torana discs and calipers bolt up or do I need to look for something else?
TIA
