Merry Christmas Gordon, yes, clutch pedal assembly on right side, the fork is RHD specific and fits in the standard housing, brake master bolted to frame rail, most chassis drilled for left or right hand. Steering box and drag link are mirror image of LHD units, steering linkages are swapped to the right side of axle instead of left, easy to do with a PW. The Australian produced PW's from the late '50's used as much local content as possible, so early B series 2wd steering column, pedals and master cylinder (same as '47 truck) also used the KEW series 251 engine with Lucas electrics and B series gearbox - think it's the same as some M37's with same mounting pattern as the 4 speed crash box. The panels were USA supply with cabins modified here for RHD and of the couple I've seen the conversion is rough as guts.
