Hello Clive,

One further point on using the TC steering bracket on a TA chassis with an XPAG engine. Do you or others have a position for the new bracket/holes? I would like to drill the holes while the chassis is bare. I think this would be easier. 

I am also looking at the option of making a special bracket to use the original holes. 

Regards 

Jeff

Jeff,

 

The TB has  the TC bracket to clear the starter motor on the XPAG, and it's mounted further along the chassis than on the TA

 

MG TA TB and TC Steering Box Mounting Brackets are these - TB and TC on the left as per this rather poor image from the files~
