Re: power steering

[Ollie <satellite1965@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Merwin,
MO is correct. You will need to change the steering shaft. The power 
steering is shorter than the manual, as the sector is bigger for the power. 
Of course you will need the pump, hoses and engine brackets for the pump. 
Brackets will be the most difficult as any parts store has the other. Other 
than that nothing else needs to be changed. The bolt patterns for the 
sectors are the same.
If you are still interested, I beleive I can locate all the parts at my 
local Mopar Super Store. (very large Mopar junk yard) What engine do you 
have? I would like your manual shaft and sector.
An additional thought, if you do the project it would be the perfect time to 
replace a bad turn signal switch and the bushing at the end of the column 
housing and the steering rod. They will be out anyway.
