The reason I am bumping this old thread is because it’s where my searching led me when I got an L285 and the steering box broke. like everyone else googled it and found this forum.
Attached is a picture of a new steering unit made by kumar bros. Found on ebay. The l345dt steering fits my l285. spent a few days reading posts like the above and hope this helps anyone searching for a new box.
minor clearance work with the angle grinder-figure out new pitman arm, and it’s a bolt in.
There is a YouTube video out there guy swapped an ebay l345dt steering box in his 295 so, figured it’d work on the 285.
Part numbers may not interchange, but ingenuity is the name of the game for vintage repairs is it not?
