Re: Houston 64 GMC (Big Blue)

An adapter plate of come sort is necessary to bolt a '68-'87 power steering box to a '60-'66 frame. My steering box adapter plates position the steering box correctly and with all 4 bolts thru the frame as they should be. An inside plate is not needed on 90% of the applications.

I've seen a lot of people using them, but I'm not sure I understand the logic behind it. Just thinking ahead...I'm going to be ready to put my column and steering back in before too much longer.
