Re: help from manual to power steering

List of things you need:

1) One salvage truck with PS--it need not have much else at all..

Method:

*Park, shove, or drop said salvage truck next to your truck.
*One part at a time, remove the PS pieces from the salvage truck while removing equivalent piece (if any) from your truck, and install the PS pieces on your truck.

You *can* take the time to collect everything individually, but it will cost more and take longer, and you may or may nto actually have everything in hand.

Re: help from manual to power steering

There are many threads on this forum pertaining to adding power steering. Using the search button to the upper right it quickly produced results.

There you go.

Thanks for the info I tried the link you provided it didn't work. Also look through tech didn't find anything I've used the search through my phone but for sum reason it won't work either .So that's why I decided to ask for help.
