Todd,
Question: is it a 3/4 ton 2wd or 4wd front-end? I ask this because the 76
4x4 has a leafsprung axle, why would you have to extend the frame? Couldn't
you just relocate the spring perches (on the axle) to match the old trucks
springs? A kit exists to mount late model (73' thru 87') C-10/20 power
steering onto the AD and TF trucks. The steering sector (box) is the same on
the 1/2T 4x4 is it the same as the 3/4T trucks? If it is the kit might be
what your looking for.

Subject: [oletrucks] power steering on 4x4 '54
I didn't get any response before with a different subject line to I thought
I would try again....I have the running gear (4-wheel drive) out of a 76
Chevrolet 3/4-ton. . To get front end centered in the fender opening I
had to extend the frame 5 1/2 inches.
The question is...have any of you tried to put this type of running gear in
with power steering? How did you mount the steering box? Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Todd Brager
