REMOVAL:
 Remove pitman arm from steering box. Remove steering wheel. (Take note of measurement from the end of the
column shaft to the column bell. This must be maintained with the replacement column shaft.) Unplug wiring
harness from column. Remove the two bolts securing the column tube to the dash and remove column tube. 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 and lock nuts. Check that the steering box is not
making contact with the exhaust, or any surrounding brake lines before tightening the steering box. Grinding or
altering the steering box in any way will void your warranty.
 Center steering box and reinstall pitman arm to new steering box with supplied lock washer and nut.
 Install complete rag joint #052534 to steering box and secure with setscrew then lock nut, be sure that rag joint is
fully installed on the steering box shaft. (Do not stop at the groove in the shaft. Fully install the shaft 1” into
the rag joint) Install the new floor mount using the three existing holes in the floor and three screws. Insert
#990040 replacement column shaft into the new rag joint. Secure column shaft with setscrew then lock nut.
 Install column tube over shaft and reattach the column tube to the dash; column tube will need to be shortened for
clearance of the new steering box and rag joint. Secure the column tube to the floor with the provided clamp.
Install steering wheel on to column shaft. (Be sure to use the measurement obtained earlier from the end of
the column shaft to the column bell. This must be maintained with the replacement column shaft). It may
be necessary to move the column tube to adjust the gap at the steering wheel.
 Install #800330(See instructions for 800330) Power steering pump, bracket and pulley kit 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.
