We have finally accumulated all of the parts neccessary for the power steering conversion on the 12/71 40. The goal for this build is stock appearance and the biggest hurdle is clearance for the power steering pump under the early aircleaner. Trying to stay with the 2f was futile. I sourced a minitruck pump with remote reservoir similar to @Coolerman s build. After speaking with a few 40 experts, i decided on a saginaw pump mounted in a low bracket. The pulley, pump and bracket were sourced from Marks Offroad. I sourced the firewall anchor and column bushings from @cruiseroutfitters . West Texas Offroad is going to be taking the guts from a straight axle pickup and installing into the OEM box. This allows the stock steering box pedestal to be used.
