I really know nothing about those generator/power steering pump combos. I would think it would work as long as it is working properly. I'll send you a PM with ordering and payment info.

**Fleet '66** · 11-10-2018, 12:39 PM

Hi Capt. It's time for me to redo the PS update on my 66 C-10. The PO made a rather crude attempt at it and I need to clean it up a bit. He probably didn't know about your bracket. I believe that all I will need is just the plate and hardware but you might send me info on the tube and flange as well.

Thanks,
Bob...

Does the steering shaft adapter need to be welded to the steering shaft?

dont have a welder so want to make sure i have everything needed.

**Captainfab** · 01-13-2019, 11:41 PM

No, the tube and flange does not have to be welded to the steering column shaft. It would be perfectly acceptable to drill thru both the tube and the shaft inside of it and install either a 1/4" or 5/16" grade 8 bolt.

Does anyone have the pattern/template to install the power steering box in relation to the old holes? It would be nice to double check my work before I drill the holes. I would really appreciate it

**Captainfab** · 03-06-2019, 12:52 AM

My steering box adapter plate comes with a template to position the plate in the correct location.

66_c10 · 03-06-2019, 01:24 AM

I know your plate is very nice just don't have the money right now. I already made a plate that places the box away from the frame and has the bolt hole layout of the box, just need to get it in the right position and drill my holes.

66_c10 · 03-06-2019, 10:36 AM

If I were to use the adapter plate will I run into any issues not being able to fully turn to the right, will the tire hit the steering box? Will I have any issue adjusting the alignment?

**Captainfab** · 03-07-2019, 12:21 AM

Regardless whether you use my adapter plate, one of the others on the market or the one you make, the turn to the right will be less than the turn to the left. It is just the nature of the installation. This is easily corrected during an alignment. No the right tire will not hit the steering box unless you have a very wide wheel with a deep backspacing. This power steering conversion has been done successfully thousands of times.

Any install pictures on a 60-62? I'm having a tough time with the CPP kit and haven't committed to installing it yet. I have the box and shaft end, but I could go either way on the bracket.

66_c10 · 03-21-2019, 03:01 PM

Ok, thanks. I am going with my homemade bracket, just have to figure out where to position it and drill the holes so the pit-man arm is in the right place, its not the space shuttle right?

**Captainfab** · 03-22-2019, 12:01 AM

I do have some installed pics of the '60-'62 kit that I make. My products are not just a copy of someone else's product. My steering box adapter plates are a bit different than every other one on the market. So the pics of mine installed will likely not work with another brand of steering box adapter plate.

Payment sent for 63-66 powder steering bracket not powder coated. Thank you again.

**Captainfab** · 04-03-2019, 11:02 PM

Payment received.

**Vero67** · 04-27-2019, 03:01 PM

I sent you a paypal payment for a 67 K10 adapter plate. Thank you John

**Captainfab** · 04-27-2019, 11:40 PM

I received a couple blank PM's and an email from you? I assume that the payment I received from someone for a steering box adapter plate for a '67 K10 was you. There was no info with the payment to connect the person's real name to your user name here.

Yes it was me, not sure why the pm's were empty.

**Vero67** · 04-28-2019, 10:28 PM

I looked at the pm's. My replies are at the top of the PM. Do you need any more information?

**Captainfab** · 04-28-2019, 11:25 PM

I went back and looked. Your replies are hidden in the midst of my PM's to you. I do not have time to reread all of every PM I receive to determine what is old and what is a new message.

I will weld up a steering box adapter plate and ship it to the address on PayPal.
