old55guy, boy, its great to know you can drive'em and work on them at the same time. Your a lucky man!

I know they make power steering kits for your model pickup. You may want to check the vendors as most of them carry them.

Around here we feel its YOUR truck and you can do what you like with it. However, if a nice original truck comes your way its nice to keep it original and find one that is not for all the custom work.
We do recognize safety issues should be address for sure....and some change to a bigger engine, add power steering, and change the rear end to a highway gear yet keeping the truck basically looking original. I think I fit into that category, especially seeing I drug home basket cases!

Be sure to drop by the garage forums with questions. The guys in those forums can give you more ideas, and opinions, than you can shake a stick at.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
