Power Steering converstion

Guys, I'm adding PS to my 70 350 stepper. I've dropped the manual box and am installing an AGR variable ration gearbox. What on the steering shaft do I need to replace and where can I source the parts? I have a MOOG PS pitman arm, so that should be sorted out. Its the column and how to connect existing to the gear box, that I could use some guidance on.
As always, gentlemen---thanks
Lou

Re: Power Steering converstion

I know this doesn't help on the weekend but call AGR and see what they say. It looks like that box has a double D from the pic you provided. Maybe you need a Double D to a spline adapter. I am sure others on here have that box as they seem to be pretty popular boxes. I changed on of mine and used a later intermediate shaft but that doesn't look like it will help you. Jim

Re: Power Steering converstion

Is the spline connector and the rag joint one unit one trucks that came w PS? Also, can I just use the intermediate shaft that came with the stock PS?

Ah, got it. Just need a different rag joint, one that has a 3/4 spline receiver.

The second pic looks a lot different than what I saw in the first. Glad you got it done. I didn't think I had ever seen one like what i said. Jim
