I hope that this post is in the correct thread as I am a newbie here. I am converting from manual to power steering like the title says and thought that I would share a few pics.

I made some good progress today so here are the pics.
This first pic is of the old crusty manual power steering box


This next pic is of the new mounting bracket with another one the other side of the chassis rail for support and to allow mounting of the larger power steering box


Now I needed to cut the old rag joint off and shorten the steering shaft.

Rag joint gone.

New Rag joint/ steering shaft adapter

New Rag joint that connects the shaft to the box.

This last pic is of the new/used power steering box and rag joint mounted. After I took this pic I connected the pitman arm seen at the bottom of the box.


Trying to hold that power steering box up and screw the bolts in from the other side of the chassis was quite challenging by myself and I might be useless tomorrow...lol

I still need to weld or bolt the shaft to the adapter and mount the pump along with installing the lines. Thanks for looking...
