X8420 We wish to carry out a number of tests on 98-NK with Marles steering. We would like to try this steering on the car with a new type of axle. For this purpose we will use the axle which has been on the bump. It is not necessary to have torque control. We would like the steering fitted up with the standard type side steering tube.
