Re: yet again.... power steering
Thanks... that was helpful for sure. Sheesh... that PS bracket is a giant turd of metal, isn't it? I see he also has that little PS cooler that sticks up in the air. My Bronco had that.

oh... wait... Hawkrod posted a much cooler PS bracket on that 428 Mustang. That's the bracket I'm looking for, along with the crank pulley.

Re: yet again.... power steering
Yes, that is a much more sanitary installation. I always hated the truck setup for it's uglyness.
The car version isn't easy to find, but sometimes can be had on flea-bay for $$$$.
There is also a cleaner install in the earlier 352 car engines, but not sure the setup will work with the later pulleys.
At least the box will work... that is something, right?

Re: yet again.... power steering
really if you dont like the sliding bracket idea. you can use the 67-70 bracket instead. as long as you use the correct spacers that come with the 67-70 bracket. maybe it s the 68-70 bracket. i am unsure if the bracket was ever used for 67.

Re: yet again.... power steering
as Johnny Cochran would say, if he were attempting a power steering conversion.... "if the pulleys align it must be fine"

Isn't the power steering system for f100 4x4's prior to 1976, the hydraulic ram setup with a manual box? Mine is.
The parts for this system are expensive and hard to find, especially a manual steering box in good shape.
You could make some $$ off this deal.
