Re: power steering gear

["Gary H." <spigot2039@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think Mopar Action magazine recently ran a tech article on how to make a '62 Plymouth power steering box "feel" much like a manual box. Involved swapping out an O ring if I recall right.... The same technique should apply to 63-65s it seems likely. 

Thanks,
Gary H.
