Power Steering

My 68 sits on a 73 3/4 ton frame, currently it is not power steering. Is it just a matter of finding another 73 4x4 with power steering and pulling it out and back into mine? Can it be any other year and still bolt up?

Power Steering

There are many different options you could take, it is all about how creative you wanna get, you have a 302, grab a mounting bracket, your hoses and plug everything into something special outta a 73, and viola!!!!

Power Steering

The 73 F250 4x4's (3/4 ton) did not come stock with power steering, only the power assist steering. I personaly did not care for it, too many hoses and fittings and places to leak and catch on things. Besides the parts are hard to come by and expensive.
Check out this article it may be of assistance.
