Hello, I am new to this forum. I recently acquired a 64 1/2 mustang convertible. it has a 289 (not original) I want to have power steering installed. I have seen a few kits. which is the best one to get? Thanks in advance for your input.
Thanks."...seen a few kits..."
I usually avoid kits (price, choices) as too expensive and somebody else has pre-selected the components.
I come HERE (well, 'sites') as the guys can tell me what Y/M/M swap ins that up-grade. I just have delivery by 1 of the big box auto stores (autoZone, advance, etc). On other hand a kit is all pre-assembled (often w/hardware too).
I do not have a 289 so will B of lill help. I would say get rid of any round ford pump. They are not durable. I use a 'canned ham' the saginaw (gm) pump. Neighbor hada Rolls "Come over'n C." Asked to open the hood I saw 1 of these. "Y?" said. Him: "U can't improve on the best." The bracktry might B hard (CJphony? LMR?). I have plenty spare for my 1st gen bronk but still hada cut/weld. Belt? easy. Hoses - local sno plow sales co (some NAPAs). Later model falcon, stang/fox body for the ster gear.
Thank You. The Borgeson is the one I was looking at. I am leaning that way.Borgeson power box with the Saginaw "P" pump or an EPS. Electric Power Steering. Stay away from original power steering or anyone trying to sell you original assist steering parts.
yeah, I was just talkin bout reasonable (a judgment) costs, access, old skol (ie components)...Thanks.
