I want to put power steering on my '72 FJ40. I understand you can swap in a mini truck gearbox, cut the shaft, weld in a rag joint, blah, blah, blah... But I don't want to go through all that.
Can I just swap in a complete '73 - '78 steering column to mate up to the mini truck gear box?? I should be able to. The only thing I think I'll have to overcome is connecting the turn signals (never mind the ignition switch, I'll leave it on the dash) since the plugs won't match.
So, mini truck power steering setup under the hood mated to a '73 - '78 column and custom turn signal switch wiring -- right? Do the columns mount under the dash and through the fire wall the same as a '72 ???
