I need a power steering box for my 1990 Defender,I have seen one on sale at SP Panels,new unit not reconditioned,for £358,has anyone fitted one of these?Thanks.
 
not bad price, SP is pretty good, they're easy to fit, just undo all the pipes + steering rack, then there's 4 bolts from the chassis side you undo, depending which defender you have the drop down elbow.. just buy a new one they're a pain to pull off
 
(also note that if it's a 1990 defender doesn't mean 1990 parts will fit, over the years people will change parts from discoveries etc into defenders so just keep that in mind for future parts on your vehicle)
 
The drop arm might be seized on. Mine was. It had to be left on the old steering box when it was replaced.

they're such a pain to change and pull off also.. for the price of a new one it's definitely worth the head ache of trying to pull the old one off.. had a hydraulic puller on the last one i did.. refused to move so just pulled out the grinder and Dremel
