66' power steering bracket

I currently have power steering but the previous owner didn't use the bracket plate he just put spacers, i searched and searched but i cant get an accurate answer cuz alot of the threads are old and dont match up with many companies, basically i want the bracket but want to minimize drilling what is a good company to purchase just the bracket from ?

Re: 66' power steering bracket

I make and sell the power steering box adapter brackets, but you will have to drill 4 holes. But not knowing what the PO did, there may be welding needed to correct the previous install.

Not necessarily. Not everyone mounts the steering box in the same location. My adapter plate comes with a template that locates the new steering box referenced from the holes for the original box. The other sellers of steering box plates, have you mount the box different than what I do.

757,
If you currently have power steering, What is the problem?
