Power vs Manual intermediate shaft

I’m converting from manual steering to power and would like to know if the intermediate shaft is the same or do I need to get one from a power truck. My new power steering box has a 13/16” shaft and that made me start thinking, the manual box had a ¾” shaft and they may be different.
I’m still looking for a new rag joint so I can’t mock things up until all the parts have been located.

Re: Power vs Manual intermediate shaft

When I converted my '69 to power (from a '75), I just dropped it in (with pitman arm attached) without changing anything.

Re: Power vs Manual intermediate shaft

The splines on the man are 3/4 x 32 so you will need the bottom section of the joint they ca n be found on line and at most parts stores in the help section
