Wph23 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 First post after my introduction so wish me luck: I've got an ex-mod 110 with the original 2.5 NAD. I am in the process of swapping the motor for a 300 TDi and this strikes me as a good time to add power steering to a truck that could really use some! Does anyone know of a conversion is feasible? Is there a conversion kit available? Is it just a matter of buying all the parts of the PS system and bolting them on? Unfortunately power steering was one of those mysterious systems I never bothered to learn much about so dumbing things down for me a bit would be nice! Thanks in advance for any info and I do apologize if this topic has already been covered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snort Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 It can be done with buying a rusted out cheap disco and using the 300tdi and power steering from that, if you are really lucky you sell the remainder of the disco at a 'profit.' Well at least my brother did! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northrecce Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I've heard the same about disco power units being fitted to nad defenders . But sent you a pm . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Plenty of rusted out Disco's avilable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wph23 Posted September 27, 2012 Author Share Posted September 27, 2012 Just to clarify the motor I am putting in it is already out of the vehicle and prepared for mounting in a 110. It has a power steering pump and for a little more the seller will throw in a PS gearbox. My concern is I have no idea how to strap the contraption to my existing non-power steering. Thanks for all te quick replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bodgit0_0 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Forgot to ask, how are you mounting your engine. What issues have you come across with the exhaust. I am considering buying a 110 and doing the same. TIA. Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am considering buying a 110 and doing the same. TIA. Lee The transfer is going well. I spent a little extra in some pre-fab mounts. The exhaust requires a new down pipe but it will then tie into your existing system. I am considering upgrading the exhaust however since technology in this department has improved in the 30 years since mine was made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Exactly what I was looking for! Looks fairly simple, worth the investment to get the parts and get me started, at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
