: I'm not sure of the actual ratio of the box, but the Euro E12's
: steering box has 3.5 turns lock to lock. If I remember right
: the US cars are 4 turns L to L. It makes sense that the 80-81 Euro 635
: would have the same steering box.
My techical data fiche shows 14.5:1 for L and R hand drive. ZF # 8052 955 172 Of course I still can't figure out how the hell to read this thing....
I know my Euro 528i was always more fun to drive (24mm sway stock different springs). Tighter steering gear makes sense.
