Power Steering Conversion for 60-62-answers

[Captainfab]

I don't quite understand how the pitman arm is causing a problem with the power steering pump. The pitman arm should be connected to the steering box and that should be positioned the opposite direction from the front cab mount. What steering box adapter plate are you using? The power steering conversion should work with a factory or original style replacement steering box and pitman arm.
