i decided to convert my 1972 f-250 4x4 to power steering i used a dodge4x4 ps steering box with the plate and chevy drag link and 3"steering arm spacer here is a link for supermotors album i took lots of pic and i got just about every thing out of a wrecking yard 1972 Ford F-250 pictures, photos, videos, and sounds | SuperMotors.net let me know if u got ????
it drives rather nicely going down the road the biggest improvement is at slow speeds and parking took sometime to get use to it i was use to the old manual steering

 

very cool, i have been wondering what i would use on my 71

 

thank you let me know if you have any question one thing i didnt mention was i had to use a ball joint reamer and in large the holes on the pitman arm and steering arm

 

well its been awhile since last post, truck is still driving nicely.must not be a lot of questions on what i did. the reason i used the dodge stuff was there was no welding involved . plus everything came from the wrecking yard that i work at. it was a very low dollar build . i think i did a good job . its getting tons of road miles and feels real good. well got to go time to work on bronco. seeya

 

Link no worky, can you put it in your gallery on here?

 

for some reason supermotors not working i will see what i can do

 

Cool, PS has to be the #1 mod for most Highboy owners so I would love to see how you did it.

 

Would this conversion work on a 1972 F100 4x4? Definitely jealous and ready to do the conversion.

 

thank you guys my truck is 1972 4x4 highboy. you will need dodge 4x4 steering box with the plate an pitman arm. i only had to re drill two holes. i flip steering shaft from column and cut in half and i got a steering joint from a honda 94 -95 they can take alot of angles had to turn ends down to fit honda joint i got to go will finish tomorrow sorry . blame my kid lol


link is working now

 

i just added the pics to my garage i hope there good

 

 

i dont know tylers 72 because the pitman arm points in different directions. i would try to mock one up and see.thats what i did .

 

well been driving my truck for over a year and no problems with conversion. i love it to death . i think its the best thing i have done for my truck. well got to go time to work on the bronco

 

Well it's good to see another local on here (I' assuming the the "ak" in your username is for Alaska).

The conversion looks good and it's great that you came back to your old thread and gave us an update.

 

yes you are correct ak stands for alaska . well i won't name the other forum but they thought it was redneck engineering and was told that i had a death wish an to spare them don't drive it on public roads
