Classic/Antique Car Repair: power steering, professional front, power steering


Question
I have a 1970 MachI and I'd like to add power steering. Should I look for used pumps, or is there an aftermarket setup available? Do you have any suggestions? Dave.

Answer
By far the best way to do this is to find a similar year V8 Mustang with Power Steering in a junkyard and take everything associated with the power steering from that car, and transfer it to your car.  You may have to change the steering gear box also, which is a BIG job.  Be sure you are skilled enough to tackle this before you get in over your head.  You might want to hire a professional front end repair shop to do this conversion for you.
