Re: power steering




Merwin,
MO is correct. You will need to change the steering shaft. The power steering is shorter than the manual, as the sector is bigger for the power. Of course you will need the pump, hoses and engine brackets for the pump. Brackets will be the most difficult as any parts store has the other. Other than that nothing else needs to be changed. The bolt patterns for the sectors are the same. If you are still interested, I beleive I can locate all the parts at my local Mopar Super Store. (very large Mopar junk yard) What engine do you have? I would like your manual shaft and sector. An additional thought, if you do the project it would be the perfect time to replace a bad turn signal switch and the bushing at the end of the column housing and the steering rod. They will be out anyway.

IIRC-- the steering shaft is a different length between the two. Ollie and I did a swap a few months ago--he probably remembers for sure. .....................................MO

Will I have to change anything besides the steering box to put power assist on my '65 Coronet? The 'Armstrong steering' just isn't cutting it anymore..........Merwin
