Hi

Looks beautifully restored. A quick question did you restore the top mount bearing, if so how and you used what?

Right, no powersteering. I decided to keep the original steering rack and just restore it. Hopefully I will not regret it but I always liked the feedback of the steering of the Beta without powersteering and I decided to stick to it...and also less weight and less things that can leak :)

Peter

I'm also interested in this. Did you fit new steering bearings to the top mounts?

@Nigel and peteracs the top mounts has been fully cleaned and galvanized. As far as I know, top steering bearings as far as I know has not been changed but only cleaned and greased. I will check with Fausto regarding this ones as I'm not 100% sure.

Activity shows the last forum login was Nov 22.

It is a superb build but I guess life gets in the way.
