Re: Restoring Rusty

LESSONS LEARNED so far

the broom stick ie the steering column do slide up and down so the manual box bolted right up though its not the exact same length as the power box

I did re use the old rag joint but I plan on buying a new one or getting a universal joint setup, if someone has one to recommend I would really appreciate that (I think someone already did way earlier in the thread but I am too lazy to look inside my own thread)

Power Steering box was about 3.5 turns end to end

Manual Steering box is about 4.0 turns end to end

Pitman arms be different, not so much in length or design but in hole for the splines, I think the manual is a bit smaller hole
