jbhill Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 ok i got the steering situation solved for my MJ(s10 frame and yota steering gear and linkage swappped to the pass side). now my question is, do they sell a factory RHD dash? maybe for the mail XJs? i see 3 or 4 riding around here but i duon if there the ghetto RHD(chain and gears) or true RHD w/ dash n all. fyi steering coulmn bracket will fit perfectly once the spot welds have ben drilled out and re welded to the passenger side ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bounty Hunter Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 They're out there as RHD was an OEM option. Haven't seen any in the junkyards, but if you call around. www.car-part.com . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildman Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 I have see postal XJ's around here (mail carriers), but don't you think that this would be a common thing in the J-yard in UK and Australia? Of course, shipping would be a killer on that idea :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bounty Hunter Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 The woodgrain is generally found in the 'Country' package of the XJ. Got top dollar for the one I parted out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feerocknok Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 I forgot that you were the owner of that. Rear frame rails look nice. All this explains the desire for RHD. I thought you just wanted to see the trails from the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
