Quick Q - 406 steering box

Anyone know the very rough weight? I've been quoted 43 kilograms to send one from Germany to the UK - does this sound even remotely right? Seems very heavy to me?

Just the box, no column or anything.

Cheers - just after a rough idea to see if its plausible.

Al.

If it's power (which it will be) - wouldn't surprise me. Bet the 404 is at least 25 kilos - BIG castings!

Hi Jim, wow - ok thanks for that, I guess it could be then! Seems really heavy!

Just need to figure out how to get it back to the UK now... Fedex quote 200 pounds...

Cheers, Al.

Where are you in the UK? I may have asked before, but memorylike a sieve.

Well, technically I'm not. I live in Paris, France, but I'm back nearly every weekend and I have a garage in Hampshire with the Mog in, amongst other 'projects'...

Hoping to move back soon though.

Cheers, Al.
