Thinking of converting my '86 240 Wagon (automatic tranny)to Right-Hand Drive.I think I can mount the brake booster on the right side, brake and gas pedal as well, modifying the accelerator cable with a pulley system. But my BIG question is "can I flip the steering rack and steering wheel successfully?" I know it sounds like a lot of work. I just want to know if it CAN be done before I start the project. I am a rural carrier for the post office, and currently use the Volvo on my route. I am tired of sitting on the wrong side of the car while using my extended left leg reaching over to use the brake/gas. I have an old postal Jeep (RHD) but there just isn't enough room for mail AND packages. Lookinf forward to any and all responses!
