1928-32 Ford Cross Steer® Retro-Fit Kit

The Cross Steer is used to replace the Vega style steering box. The system still uses a draglink between both wheels. The Cross Steer is essentially a small half rack and pinion and was specifically designed for solid axle cars and trucks of this era with a mono leaf spring suspension. Since the Cross Steer pivots only off the one side, it matches up perfectly with the stock suspension of the solid axle Fords. Sorry, it will not work on Chevys which had dual leaf springs.

The gear comes mounted to an angled bracket that has the same three hole pattern as the Vega box. This small rack & pinion is made of all automotive grade components and can handle a vehicle up to 3500 lbs! This kit consists of a coupler and a shaft with a splined end which is the same size as the Vega spline so you can reuse your existing steering linkage.

Note: You must have split wishbones (at least 12 inches) or hairpins for the Cross Steer to properly work.
