    Power steering delete

    My car is right around 3200-3300 pounds, I'm pretty sure. I had a 1947 Ford F2 with a manual double clutch transmission and obviously manual steering. It was a reliable runner with the original flathead V8. Had an 8 foot bed. I had that truck for a couple years, spent one summer using it to go...

    Power steering delete

    SOLD ISO FJM Body V8 K Member

    If I want to get rid of my power steering bin my 1980 Dodge Aspen, can I just buy a manual steering box? Will it bolt right in in place of the power steering box? Or do I need other pieces? Thanks.
