Re: [Amc-list] Converting to power steering from manual

[Greg Taylor <amundaza@xxxxxxxxx>]

If you need a new steering coupler (AKA rag joint), you can get a brand new one relatively cheap, from Lares Corporation.  They sell them on Ebay and their website ( www.larescorp.com )
   
  Sincerely,
  Greg Taylor :)  <><
   
  P.S. YES, getting the bolts started can be an adventure in muscle fatigue!

  You'll need the steering coupler from the power steering box, a power 
steering pitman arm, and the adapter plate that goes between the box and 
the frame sill (it's also used on Javelin's and AMX's). It all bolts in 
pretty easy. The worst part is having to hold the gear box in place 
while you start the bolts.

> Hello, I'm converting my 67 Rambler Rebel 290 V8 over to power steering (Eaton) from the long time factory manual steering. I got the pump and gear box off a 67 Rebel with power steering. My question is: "Will I run in to any problems on the conversion with the connection to the steering column shaft?" I'd hate to have to modify that. I am hoping that the gear box will just connect/bolt on together to the steering column.
