Power steering in a 70 highboy?
Does any one know of what I would need to convert my highboy to power steering? Also is there a kit to convert to front discs?

Re: Power steering in a 70 highboy?
If you look at my thread you will see how to do both. The best path is to find the Front Axle and steering box out of a 77 1/2 to 79 F250 or 350 4x4. The steering wasn't to bad but finding a reasonably priced axle is getting difficult. I had talked to a guy that was making a kit for the closed knuckle but he stopped doing them and it was very expensive. Upgrading the axle is a better option as the newer axles are easier to get parts for. Good luck.
