    Are steering rack internals the same in LHD and RHD e36?

    Hi all,

    this is my first post but i've been reading you for over two years. I now own one european 1993 e36 325i (LHD) and this is going to be a project car shared with a friend. First thing we want to change is the steering rack for the z3 one (very popular mod). I've been reading tenths of threads with very interesting information about this upgrade but I've not been able to answer below question:

    Are steering rack internals the same in LHD and RHD? I mean, is it possible to buy a RHD z3 steering rack and use it with LHD housing, pinion, etc? I believe the rack itself must be the same in both versions.. I assume both housings and everything to be "symmetrical" but I'm not sure.

    Any experience with this?
