Power Steering Conversion Kit?

Hello To everyone. I have been a member for a while but this is my first post. If anyone can give me their opinion it would be appreciated.

I have a 1970 Chevy C/10 short bed step side, with manual steering. I'm currently installing the disc brake conversion and wondering if I should convert to power steering?

Brothers has a sale on the complete kit.

Re: Power Steering Conversion Kit?

Personally? I would do it, if it is cost effective. The new kit should come with a new pitman arm, the power steering gearbox, hoses, resevoir, pump and possibly brackets. I did a writeup in the FAQ Truck-Tech section about rebuilding steering while upgrading to power steering if you wanted to get an idea about the process.

I can't check the forum daily. If I don't reply to you within 24 hours, drop me a PM! I'm (hopefully) still alive and will reply faster to a PM.
