REMOVAL:
Remove pitman arm from original steering box. Disconnect the original steering box at the rag joint. Remove the
three bolts attaching the steering box to the frame and remove steering box.
INSTALLATION:
Bolt the new steering box to the frame with the supplied bolts. Check that the steering box is not making contact
with the exhaust, or any surrounding brake lines. Grinding or altering the steering box in any way will void your
warranty.
Gently tap on the rag joint flange at the base of the stock column to collapse the column in on itself to create
clearance for the rag joint and power steering box. It may be necessary to trim some of the outer column tube off
to allow the inner shaft to collapse far enough for installation. Do not attempt to collapse aftermarket columns.
Center steering box and reinstall pitman arm to new steering box with supplied lock washer and nut. Attach
pitman arm to original drag link.
Install the part #990016 half rag joint to steering box and secure with setscrew then lock nut. (Do not stop at the
groove in the shaft. Fully install the shaft 1” into the rag joint) Attach rag joint to stock column rag joint
flange with supplied bolts.
Install correct power steering pump, bracket and pulley kit for your vehicle and connect to conversion box with
P/S hose kit # 925108 or 925110. (Arrows are cast into box indicating pressure and return. Return line is
closest to the rag joint.)
Fill the power steering system with a quality P/S fluid. With the engine running check new system for leaks and
bleed off any air trapped in the system by slowly turning the wheel full left to full right with the wheels off the
ground. Be sure to keep fluid full.
It is recommended to get a complete alignment. We recommend increasing caster to 3-4 degrees positive.
