Hi All -
I was going to put power steering in my mostly stock ‘70 FJ40. I am going with the mini-truck gear box. I was hoping to use an off the shelf kit (Saginaw pump, box mounting bracket, etc). The two options I have found so far are Valley Hybrids and JT Outfitters. Anyone have any good or bad experiences with these kits?
It appears that since I have an older FJ40, I will need to cut the steering column and weld a rag joint to attach to the mini box. Anyone do this? Any tips?
Finally, at least with the JT Outfitters kit, I will need to remove the stock air filter to put in the Saginaw pump. Any recommendations on a smaller aftermarket air filter.
Thanks
