has anyone swapped over from a manual to power steering setup? know what needs to be done? what parts are needed? is it a bolt-on swap? im thinking about doing this swap given ive heard rumors that its fairly simple, i just never looked into it in depth.

 

I believe Trap just added power steering to his.

 

toyo trucker hit him up

 

I did just add power steering.

Off the top of my head you will need;

-2 or 3 different brackets for the pump
-p/s pump
-p/s reservoir
-p/s gear box
-shorter length steering shaft
-low pressure line
-high pressure line with cooler
-idler pulley
-crank pulley
-approximately 4 feet of vaccum hose.
-another belt
-a lot of bolts

 

Hey Al there's a guy on ebay with a complete set up... gear box, pump, reservoir, hoses, brackets, the whole nine yards.

 

thanks guys...... i had an opportunity to buy the whole setup for $100 bux but not sure its still available... havent been able to get a hold of the guy who had it.

Mac, got a link to that ebay page?

 

I did it on my truck it is simple like a level 4 to install, but hey if you can get a vacuum asist pump from a later model they work way better, and are easy to tap in to your existing lines.

 

yea, im definately looking into it.... i need to finish up my motor build and i think im gonna go with that setup!

on a side not yet relative topic....... i found out recently that my toyota mini truck salvage yard is back and in full swing! ill be hitting them back up for my toyota parts needs
