p/s to manual steering

Post by killakobra »

i just bought another project truck that has p/s, but i don't have a pump or steering column to match it so i'm going to finish my manual steering box and use it. do i have to use the M/S tie rods or can i just swap out the steering boxes?

the tie rods are the same for power or manual. it is just the years that make the difference. anything before serial number m00,001 will fit anyy thing before that number. anything after that number will fit anything after that serial number.
