Truckwhisperer Wrench Fetcher T Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 117 South Carolina	I am in the early stages of planning a rebuild of my '56 6500 flatbed and I am still brainstorming. How hard is it to add power steering to a big bolt? Is there a bolt on power assist kit available that will work on a big bolt? Was power steering even available on big bolts in 1956? Enquiring minds want to know. Any input is appreciated.
