Ok, question? I purchased a 78 rolling chassis, 12 bolt 3.42 with the 1 1/4 rotors. For a Crossmember swap onto my 60 for the disc brakes and power steering.The PO stated it was a hydraboost steering box. What's the difference? What size and or style brake booster master cylinder do I need. What power steering pump do I need? Or does it make a difference. I know they went to metric in 76 on the steering box hose fittings.... Oh and Captainfab I'll need one of each of you brackets for my 60 I know I'll have to mod my 60 frame for the box mount. Do I need to run hydroboost or does the steering box care?
