Re: 1968 chevrolet truck power steering conversion
A 1967 frame is different and requires a spacer plate or homemade spacers (nuts) or a different style set up....68 and up is normally a direct bold on.
You will also need to check your engine block and make sure you have the holes you need to mount the pump.
I have done this conversion 10 times atleast and I have always bought complete set ups from board members, scrap yards, ebay, etc. I have NEVER spent more than $200 for a complete kit with pulleys. The only thing new I buy are the hoses.
DO NOT BUY Orieleys pumps and gear boxes...JUNK!
