Power steering swap - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I completed to conversion to power steering on my '64 C10 pickup back in the spring. So easy. Only took a couple hours. I used the steering box and pump off a 1985 chevy pickup. It almost was a bolt on. You have to drill a couple holes in the frame, plus build a small bracket. Very easy. Total cost for me was $160.00.

I suspect any steering box and pump will work up through the mid 80's. In 86 the changed from standard threads to metric, so be sure you get both box and pump from the same vehicle.

I can give you all the details of my swap is you wish.
