Free two astra electric steering pumps

As per the title.

The steering pump on my old astra went one christmas, got a recon unit that wasn't the right model. Got a second one sent by the recon company that supposedly didn't work. In the end i needed the car so bought a whole new system from Vauxhall.

These have been sat in my attic for two years. If anyone wants them - they're yours. Really can't be bothered with postage but also in no rush to get rid. If you're interested (and if you won't collect will organise collection) ..... send me a U2U

Just a thought.

A friend of mine has a hoist over his pit which uses some old rams and a jacking beam. The valve block is an old truck one.
The hydraulics are powered by an old steering pump powered by a 240V motor. The astra electric motor looks like a neat way of doing the same thing.
I know it's 12V, but a battery would run it and a charger would keep the battery topped up.

Just a though.
Locost and all.
