    I have a steering gear that I need to ID.I think it fits a '40 to '47 Hudson. The casting # on the housing is 30818. The shaft is 41" from the housing to the steering wheel end.Thanks. Norm:huh:

    Norm, My books don't show that part exactly but a 5 place part number would indicate a late twenties model Hudson not a forties Hudson.

    I think We're gonna need cross shaft diameter and length, and right or left exit from housing.

    Also the mounting hole size and pattern.

    A picture would be more than helpful.
    If you're stuck in a hole, stop digging.
