Everything that I see with the parts suppliers is for a V8.

I'm not sure about this but until someone else chimes in here goes. Classic Parts of America, or American Classic, has a tech tip on their site about putting power steering on the AD pickups. I know one of the sites has a tech tip on them upgrading their own truck.... but it does not show the power steering set up. I'm sure someone here will actually tell you more but maybe this will keep you hunting until they do....
...It may help to ask this in engine and driveline??? Now, how about some pics of your truck. We love pics around here. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 | I've seen it done two ways. Use the generator/power steering pump from a '57 car. This setup has the pump behind the generator.
The second is to use a big band to secure the pump to the generator.
Neither approach really appeals to me so I've been contemplating making my own brackets.
