Power to manual steering conversion
Would I just simply need the manual steering box for this conversion? How do the ratios compare?

Re: Power to manual steering conversion
You should just need the box, but the pitman arm may be different, so I'd grab a used box with it on. A manual box is a much larger ratio; maybe 18:1. I know I have to sit and spin my 70s steering wheel and used to with the 67 til I put quick ratio power steering in it.

Re: Power to manual steering conversion
The manual box is shorter than the PS, so you will need a longer intermediate shaft.
