Power Steering Conversion for 60-62-answers
Wow,I just went through the process of installing the bracket in my 62 truck for the power steering conversion...I learned alot from it, such as in 1963 the frames changed and the kit was ultimately decided for 63-66. I knew I needed to use it so the process began...the pics describe it better than I can but if anybody has any questions on how I did it please do not hesitate to ask questions....I redrilled the top hole on the bracket and steering box and ultimately I will grind it off for a clean factory look...I used spacers to give the bracket strength because about a quarter of it just hung in open air....I also used a key hole saw to drill out the section of frame where it meets the inner and outer members, I also used another spacer(not seen in the pic)for even more support...I was on the phone with REZ and GMC Paul's who helped me confirm I had a problem and I am glad I was able to fix it....Just a FYI the bolts contained in the 60-66 kit are too short for a the 60-66 truck unless you order directly from REZ, you will require much longer bolts due to the boxed frame...good luck and contact me with any questions...
