Tribute to CaptFabs steering conversion plate

I used the Caps power steering conversion plate yesterday. Worked perfect. A couple things that threw me off for awhile. The instructions that come with the plate get into all the measurements to drill the new holes, since he wrote these pages he has come up with a awesome template that does away with all these measurements. He has written in ( use the template). took me acouple minutes to realize what was goin on. That template is worth the price of the whole package. The other thing is when I lined up the steering shaft to the new pump I had to pull it outboard a good 1/4 or more inch to line up. when I loosed all the steering column bolts, As he says to do. The bolts on the engine side of the firewall and the under dash bolts the column popped right over. I can't see the difference in the cab. Nice work Capt.

Defiantly a nice part. The template makes it much easier to figure it out.
