Best conversion is from a 73-76 for 352 engine or 73 -79 for 6 banger donor.

Power steering

I'm not looking for brakes, just the Power Steering

Bgrf100You are going to need the Saginaw gear, steering column with matching shift, pump, lines, engine specific pump bracket. I stand by my original #2 post

Recently gave fellow Ford Enthusiast a Saginaw/Ford box after he experience sticker shock on the cost of having the Bendix box reconditioned, that they would only offer a limited warranty was an issue, seems the Bendix life expectancy is limited?? He indicated that in order to install the Ford box he purchase the steering column collar and PS motor mount.

Anyhow, Ditto what John said.

As John said, "Best conversion is from a 73-76 for 352 engine or 73 -79 for 6 banger donor." for your PS stuff as well as brake stuff.
Check a local salvage yard. Pick the parts your self or see if someone there will yank them for you. I haven't checked to see where you live but
Pick-N-Pull yards are great for finding parts. Removing the parts yourself will assure you have ALL the nuts and bolts and thingys you need.


SOME of the guys here have installed the 'electric steering' units. Can't remember off hand what cars they come from but if you ask, I'm sure they will offer up the info...

I just need the power steering stuff. I don't have room for the other parts. Let me now if you want to separate just the power steering stuff
