61 f250 power steering

Hey All,

Was wondering if anyone had attempted to get power steering into a early 60's F250 4x4. Let me know if anyone has any insight.

Thanks,
Wes

Sorry, posted couple links to F100 brake kits, their websites apparently do not offer F250 kits, perhaps other member's will chime in? Perhaps contact links for suggestions??

I have been talking with the CPP guys via email for a bit now, getting some good information.

Thanks!

Keep us posted. If they took a CPP5356PSK-OC and made a different plate with our bolt pattern it would bolt in and hook right up with the right pitman arm and a little mod to the steering shaft.

If they claim there would be no demand for such a kit, let us know and we can bomb them with emails and phone calls.
