Vital Concepts In Right Hand Drive Conversions

By Mary Powell


Over years, many people have engaged in endless argumentation on the way positions of drives in cars are changed and diverted from one side to the other. Majority of the people claim that when changing the positions, only the dashboards and steering wheel are transferred or alternated to the other side and others assume that the chain-drive process is usually adopted. The latter is however, inferior. According to evidence from companies that make right hand drive conversions, the mirror image process is what is used. It entails making new parts in resemblance with those that initially existed.

The entire process of transferring drives in cars from left to right is in optimum agreement with the law. This is as outlined in the National Codes of Practices. The credentials are further provided in Vehicles Safety Standards Act. The process is only executed if the company offering the services has met all the requirements provided in these legal acts.

Consequently, air conditioning is done. Many people presume that only the steering wheels position is changed, but this is not really true. A lot of other practices are mandatory, in the process of converting drives. It is at this stage that conversions are molded and heated from left to right side, and is considered the most strenuous part of the entire process.

The next stage involves air conditioning. This is whereby heating is done from left to right sides of the drives. This stage is arguably the most grueling and tasking, of all the stages. The heater box that is usually on the drivers seat, in this case the left side, has to be transferred to the right side, in such a way that it fits in accurately. There are people who have been of the opinion that converting drives in cars basically entails changing only the steering wheel, but this step clearly disputes those contortions.

Companies offering conversion services have devised many ways of ensuring parts fully resemble the old ones, so there is usually not much difference between the previous form of the car, and the present one. They pre-fold, pre-drill and even cut these components so that they can assume new shapes and fit accurately where they are intended to fit. At the end of the production process, total conformity is realized.

Companies have in the recent past become more innovative, as far as ensuring resemblance and conformity of components is concerned. This is made possible by the making of pre-folds and pre-drills and also cutting some of the components, with the intention of fostering cohesiveness in that they are ultimately similar to the previous ones. In the long run, the car being changed positions of the drives ends up totally resembling its previous form.

What makes many companies produce copyrights of the vehicles in terms of conformity and resemblance even after converting them is the pre-folds, pre-drills and cuts made to make components adopt the desired shapes and forms. The parts are also respectively numbered, therefore replacements are accurately done since it is clear what belongs where.

All these measures are aimed at ensuring consistency and enhancing spot-on quality, alongside ensuring optimum resemblance and conformity during production. There has been an influx in the number of companies venturing in the business of converting positions of drives in vehicles, the most notable ones being RHD Vehicle Conversions Corporation, Performax Corporation and American Automotive Australia.
