Searching For A Challenger Rhd Conversion

By Deborah Olson


When you are relocating to a country where they drive cars on the right side of the road, with an American manufactured vehicle, you may opt to get the vehicles controls moved to the other side of the car. When searching for a challenger rhd conversion, there are a couple of ways to get the modifications done. A little research is required and it is important that the work is done properly to allow the car to be driven safely.

The task of converting a car is quite technical and many modifications will be required. As well as moving the pedals and steering wheel, other interior components will need to be moved. Brakes, suspension, headlights and exhaust systems may also need to be relocated or adjusted to allow safe operation.

A cost effective way to modify your vehicle is to buy the parts in a conversion kit and do the work at home. Many kits are offered for sale which are tailor made for the Dodge Challenger and it is essential that you select the correct one. After fitting the kit you should be mindful that many of the metal levers, springs and other parts will be left exposed and the finished results are not always great.

The best place to find a parts kit is to look on the internet where you can find many suppliers. After looking through their stock, you can order a suitable pack of parts that will be sent to you with all of the fitting diagrams and technical support information. Some specialist equipment and tools may also be needed and you can buy these from your supplier if they are required.

The best way to get a good conversion done is to submit your Challenger to a specialist engineering firm and have them carry out the modifications. There are a large number of well established companies that do this type of work to a very high standard. Using the professionals is the more expensive option but you will have the peace of mind that all work is covered by their guarantees.

When you use the services of a professional company, the results are going to be far superior to a kit modification. The new parts that are fitted, and the existing ones moved, will be done so that they are hidden away and the car will look as if it were made that way. Another benefit of using a company is that they can continue to maintain the car after the modification work is done to keep the guarantees valid.

Whichever method you decide to go for it is essential that the car is checked to ensure it is safe to drive on the public roads. A specialist firm will issue you with official certificates covering all of the modifications along with list of what has been changed. If you have done the job yourself using a kit, the car should be submitted to a qualified mechanic for safety checks, and then the certificates can be issued.

There are a couple of things to bear in mind after you have modified a vehicle. The manufacturer warranty will not be valid after making these changes and the value of your car may be affected. You will also need to inform your insurance company and there may be an increase in your premiums.
