Re: Adding Power Steering

A number of outfits sell this style of kit that mounts the steering box on the outside of the frame rail in front of the axle. Depending on how good you can scrounge and source parts you can buy a kit that just has the linkage or a complete kit like this. https://www.classicparts.com/1947-59...ctinfo/76-975/

A couple of members have used units off fairly common donor rigs and hopefully they will post or post a link to their build thread telling you where to find the info.

48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
