Re: parts list for 63 c10 power steering conversion
Well you're going to need a power steering box from a '69-'87 pickup, Suburban or 2wd Blazer. You can use the pitman arm for that steering box, it will fit your '63 draglink. Then you will need an adapter plate to mount that to your frame ( I can help you with that). Since you say your alternator is on the passenger side I am assuming that you have the long water pump. In which case you can use a power steering pump with pulley and mounting brackets from a '73-'87 pickup, Suburban, or Blazer in either 2wd or 4wd......pump is the same. Be aware that in around 1980-81 they switches the fitting style to a metric with an O-ring seal. So it makes things easier if you get a box and a pump of the same style. You will also need to make sure that your crank pulley has enough grooves to accomodate a PS belt. Then you will also need the hoses and belts, but these are best to purchase new from the parts store. If you could find one parts truck with everything, that would be a bonus as you would have everything matching.
