"Tilt column or non tilt? If it is a tilt column, you can modify the metal mount base so you get more adjustment. "
"Glad you found the pulley. It was probably less than the puller! Give me a shout if it doesn't work out."
"Thanks Jason. I found an "expensive NOS pulley" on eBay and ordered it. Like I said, my pulley was pretty damaged after I got through with it. If the one I ordered works, I should have old blue up and running in no…"
"You need a specific puller to get them off without bending them (at least in my experience). The tool is a kent-moore j-8433 tool and they can be pricey if you find one. With that I have a few options:- very good used power steering pump…"

"Hey Russ, you have any more steering pump pulleys?"
"I show USA Parts has them for $199 and Kanter for $135. I can pick out a VG used with tight end joints for $35 + s/h. If your budget permits I would suggest buying this and all suspension new. I have had good luck picking out good tight…"

I need some front suspension done and Les Schwab tells me I need a center link among other things. Apparently the center link is something they're having a challenge finding.

1964 power steering sector rebuild
Posted by CHRIS CARLSON on March 20, 2023 at 11:32pm 3 Comments 0 Likes
I'm having my steering sector rebuilt, and considering changing it from 20-1 ratio 4.2 turns lock to lock to 3.5 turns lock to lock @ 16-1 ratio, If i change from a 3 1/4" box to a 3" box i could have a 14-1 Ratio steering response would be faster, shorter distance to turn the wheel to get a response, has anyone done this? and how do you like it? thank you

I need to know where the thumb or finger position is located through the grille. Is it above or below the center grille molding piece? Mine seems to be positioned behind the center molding piece and will not adjust above or below the molding. I have a wire tied to it to release it…
