anyone got any power steering stuff? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

muscletruck · 10-08-2002, 10:45 PM

i NEED some for my 69 LWB 2wd, i am gonna be coming in to some money soon, if this damn bike ever sells, and i have decided it would be a good investment, i need the entire setup if possible, worse come to worse i can always get the pump from any small block right?...but anyone with the lines, gearbox and anything else i would need...doesn't have to be show condition just has to work, i just need a decent price, i would definately appreciate it......THANKS ALL!!

dmnall · 10-08-2002, 11:19 PM

Well what would you consider a Decent Price ?? I have Complete Powersteering Setup (i.e. Pump w/ Brackets, Lines and Powersteering box w/ Pitman Arm.. off my 74 Chev Parts Truck! I don't have any use for them because my 68 has Powersteering that I converted back in Summer of 2001 w/ parts off of a 79 Chev Truck!!

Get Back to me if you are interested!

Thanks,

Charlie

While NOT trying to interfear with a potential sale here, I need to ask Mr muscletruck a Question....
where is your alt mounted? It really matters since you are trying to get a complete set up here.
On a small block, up to (and including) 72, the alt was up high on the drivers side, and the power steering pump was under it, with the bracket reaching to the motor mount.
The later set up had the alt on the passenger side, and the pump up a bit higher on the drivers side.
You can not run the old alt bracket with the newer pump set up.
Again, not trying to kill a sale, I just know how bad it sucks when no one mentions something that they could have mentioned, and have pile of junk on my floor becouse of it.

muscletruck · 10-11-2002, 05:14 PM

dmnall- yes i would love to buy it, right now i am waiting for my brother to get back to me about my motorcycle, his friend wants to buy it, i hope he can hurry up because i really want to jump on that

longhornmail- so what would i need to do to make the pump work, just get an alternator bracket that mounts on the passenger side?...or what? this is a great deal i and i want to get the stuff, so just let me know what i would need to do...I REALLY APPRECIATE IT! thanks to both of you...

crazy longhorn · 10-11-2002, 06:15 PM

Muscletruck, you need the waterpump, pullies, alt brackets, & steering pump& brackets & hoses from the 74 to make that work. take a look at my longhorn, its done with 73 up parts http://community.webshots.com/user/hotrodhorn

Michael A. K. G · 10-11-2002, 06:19 PM

No mention of water pump pulley and harmonic balancer. This isn't a complete setup.

You can get an inline six bracket, pulley, HB and pump off a Nova; they are the same. Make sure you get all the parts off the same vehicle or you may have multiple pulley alignments to deal with. You may need a timing cover if the HB has the timing mark in a different place.

The gear and Pitman arm must come off a truck. It is the same for all the V8 trucks, and the gear can even be found on some Dodges (not the Pitman arm, though).

dmnall · 10-12-2002, 01:49 AM

Well I have the set up still, I will check the PS Pump set up tomorrow and see if it is like how Crazy Longhorn's Set up Is. Well I will get back to you tomorrow on that one!

Thanks Again,

Charlie
