Quick Ratio Steering Box Feeler- All internals are new.


Furry Camel

Recommended Posts

Price: $3000
Location: SoCal


Description:

This is a completely rebuilt Quick Ratio box, using new parts. The box's plate is a standard plate, not stamped 177, but that wasn't a priority. My focus was to build a solid QR box for my race car. As discussed in other threads about using QR boxes in street cars, it's not really suggested since it takes a bit more effort, especially in a slow moving car.

This is my backup box, and my current box works so well (identical to this one) that I don't see a need for this one anytime soon.

"New" boxes don't go on sale, so pricing is tough. If no takers at the asking price, you're welcome to make an offer through PM. This is a professionally built steering box, guaranteed to perform as advertised.

Interesting, did somebody have NOS parts, specifically the worm and roller that you acquired to rebuild the box? Unless ZF reproduced those parts again in the last 10 years that would be the only way you could rebuild the box.

 

See this, Sherman:

I'm reasonably-certain the kits were manufactured by CHS:

Based on my experience and inquiries, there are not many folks or shops with the tools / patience / determination to replace the 'long' brass shaft bushings. The pin for the roller isn't a cake walk, either. -KB

IE makes new internals. Most likely where they were obtained. Retail for about $550. Maybe another couple hundred in labor.

Hence the reason it’s not being given away. I’m one of those folks.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
