If the TR3 has a one-piece steering shaft, changing to rack and pinion is even
more involved. You have to obtain two piece shaft parts as well. If you look
at the Moss kit, this is described in detail. The standard box can be rebuilt
and if done correctly, will provide excellent operation. I'd say if the
steering is in that bad a shape, getting all suspension and steering components
renewed as well, will transform the car. I use mostly standard components on
my TR3A street/race car and rebuilt the steering box myself. The worm gear was
still in good condition.
