power steering bracket help???
ok, im putting power steering on a 58 f100. Im gonna use a toyota steering box, but im having issues finding a power steering bracket that will bolt on to the stock block. It has the factory inline 6. Does anyone know where i can find power steering brackets. Im pretty sure I am going to have to convert to an alternator, and put the power steering where the generator is. Anyone know if the 61-66 trucks with the inline 6 (if they even had inline 6 cyl's with p/s) had power steering, and if they did, will the power steering brackets work?

'60FF100
So far all the original P/S set ups I have looked at show 2 to 3 Braketts being used to secure it in place. You are just going to have to Mix & Match the different FoMoCo braketts to you find a combination that works. That is waht I am having to do right now. I have yet to find pats #'s on the for I-6 use in the '57 through '60 series F/M-100.
