Default RHD short pitman arm

Some will be in favour, (older folk) some not but due to requests for a Right Hand Drive short pitman arm the same spec,s as the available LHD one we have contracted the producer of the LHD one to produce the right hand version Samples will be here in a week or so, these will be an exclusive line having had to front for tooling etc, , Unsure yet as too how we will distribute them , no doubt NZ will be from here but may look at dealers in different countries , In order to keep the best price for users there will not be big discounts , At this stage do not have the prices but hopeful not much more than the LHD one , freight will be the problem but will work on it . Stay tune for an update , Derek in mid winter in NZ ,

Derek, That's good news. Did you look into RHD steering arms too? I expect they would be even more expensive to produce though.

I also would like one of those for my Speedster. The left hand ones tend not to work well on RHD cars, funny that!
