POWER STEERING in 66 custom3/4 camper
 

i am hitting a wall finding parts and advice on what to do with a failing power steering system on my survivor stock 66 custom camper 3/4 ton truck. it looks like the ram is ok but the bushings are floating on the rod and the control value is leaking. i get power steering to the left but not the right. Help?
thanks!

You could also update your truck to the '69-'87 power steering box.

Thanks Ron! this is the place i would have never found without your help!

Captainfab, are there special advantages to updating the steering as you suggest? how difficult and how much. thanks for the idea

The integral power steering is what I would call a true power steering. IMO, it is much nicer than the power assist that you currently have. How much depends on whether you buy new/rebuilt parts or good used. The steering box adapter plate I sell for $60.00 shipped. You already have the pump......

captainfab, sounds too easy is there a thread on how this is accomplished beyond the bracket and the pump.
thanks again.

About the only thing I can think of at the moment is a few pics in my for sale thread.
