Looking For A Challenger Rhd Conversion

By David Allen


If you are moving to a country where they drive on the other side of the road with a US made vehicle, a lot drivers will have the vehicles controls moved to the opposite side of the car. If you are looking for a challenger rhd conversion there are a few options available after some homework has been done. It is not a legal requirement in most countries but making the changes should make driving a lot more comfortable.

When you have made the decision to convert your Challenger there are more changes to be made than moving a few basic driver controls. Pedals, the steering wheel and some electrical switches will need to be relocated and other bits may need slight adjustment. Exhaust systems, brakes and headlight aim will also need adjustment to make sure the vehicle is safe.

The most cost effective way to change a vehicle is to get the parts in a kit and do the conversion at home. This can be a fairly inexpensive process and a good way of getting the job done. One major drawback of a kit is that some of the end results are quite unsightly and a number of the newly fitted parts are left exposed.

Finding a package kit is reasonably easy and there are web based suppliers that specialize in kits for Challenger cars. These kits are supplied with all of the instructions and usually a link for technical support. It should be noted that when doing the modifications yourself, it may be necessary to get extra tools to allow you to do complete the project.

The safest option is to give your Challenger to a specialist company and let them to do the conversion for you. There are many established companies with years of valuable experience who can do these modifications to a very high standard. It will be a more expensive option than if you do the job, but the work they have done will be covered by a guarantee.

If you choose to employ an engineer to work on your vehicle, a far better finish can be achieved than with a DIY kit. All of the components fitted should be invisible and in the majority of cases the car will look as if it was built that way. Another advantage of using a professional company is that they will continue to offer maintenance for the car after these modifications are done.

When the conversions are done the car will need to be inspected by an engineer to make sure it complies with regulations. If the vehicle is converted by a technician it should be returned with documents confirming that it has passed inspections. If the conversion has been done as a project in a home workshop, the vehicle can be booked in for the checks afterwards.

When you modify your Challenger, the manufacturer warranty will no longer be valid. The future value of your car may also be affected after the conversion has been done. It is a legal requirement that you notify your car insurers after theses modifications as it may affect the cover they offer.
