'71 F250 4X4 Power steering conversion
I want to perform the same conversion on my 71 highboy, but I couldn't find the tech article on the site. Can someone PLEASE email it to me at mark.clay@***.net?
Thank you much in advance for your help!

guys, my tech article has been posted on this board (Thanks Ken) I have been looking at some F-100 4wd's and other years of highboys, seems it will work in those applications also. I have a buddy with a f-100 and all he needs to do is keep the 2wd pitman arm on the sector and let it rotate side to side vs. front to read. That change the drag-link (It looks like he has cross over type steering)

More articles coming soon for all years. I've got a backlog of about 100 articles, some 2+ years old. I'm finally getting some extra help here with new employees and I'm going to be able to dedicate myself about 90% to the FTE site, technology, etc., instead of the Motorhaven side handling 90% of the customer support calls. Look for a new article every 3-5 days. I've got a few I've done myself, like the original 67-72 disc brake article I did. Once they are polished I'll put them up (some are for the new trucks too).

I am wanting to do this conversion on my 71 f250 that also has a 460 I was wondering if you had any pics or could tell me how you made your power steering pump bracket.
I used the pump and gear box out a 72 F250. I had to have hoses made for it because I have a 460 instead of the original FE engine. I also had to make up a pump bracket to fit the pump to my 460. If you still have the FE engine in your truck you can use the pump bracket off the donor. Glenn Davis is currently putting together a tech article on how to do this conversion.
