Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Classic Morgans (pre-CX) Gemmer box

I managed to get one a while back which I intend to fit in my 1966 +4 using the 'Button guide' which probably came from the bedside reader. Couple of things I'm not 100% sure about but will either work it out or ask the man himself... (Button, I already have a TR7 upper column but am unclear on the bit to join that to the box?)

However, to the point which was that the MG TC steering box is often replaced by a VW box and if I hadn't managed to get a Gemmer box I was going to look at the VW option. Don't know whether they could be made fit, but was told by a friend who had both a Morgan and an MG TC with the conversion that they looked similar enough to be worth investigation.

You got it "Bedside Reader". The Gemmer I bought does not have a column. Just a short extension. If I remember the first leg with MGB U joints and the second leg came from a Jag XJ6 steering. The Jag leg was shortened (by a reliable welder). It has a dog leg that gives it flexibility. I will try to take pictures when I fully wake up this morning.

Thanks, John,

I hadn't read the articles on Gomog but had heard the tale - and didn't believe it. So, as it seems, I have to search another substitute for my lousy Burman box. Any ideas?
