toyota power steering conversion

[co 55 f100]

[QUOTE=Jim Beardsley;3035]I have a 1955 f-100 and I would like to use the Toyota Power steering conversion.

Problem is I have the original 223 straight Six so I have power steering pump bracket problems. I have converted to 12 volts so I have a alternator which hangs on the driver side of the engine leaving very little room for the pump.
Where and how do I hang the pump?

Next problem is I have the original 3 speed trans. with the column shift (3 on the tree) which I want to retain. Is there enough room to install the Toyota steering box and attach to the stock steering column and retain the stock 3 speed linkage?

I have a 55 f-100 that i converted over , i can take pics and try to explain what I did if you are still interested, i'm still trying to figure out a way to get the horn to work since the original wire goes thru the hollow steering column shaft, email me if interested still! mine has the 239 v8 y block and I made it work.

The CPP column is a good budget minded column. being an economy type column it is a good choice for someone on a budget. for the higher end builds the IDIDIT 312-50v8 dumps would be a premium line choice.


The rag joint would be a 1DD to 3/4x30. as for the stock wheels you will see a small gap between the wheel and the column. On Ididit brand they make a small ring that goes on the back of the wheel that fills this gap.
