Praise the Lord and pass the bisquits!
I have finished with the upgrade from manual to power steering and this may be the best thing I have ever done on my 68. It drives like a new truck and I now cannot believe I waited so long to do this. Thanks to all who shared info and advice.

Thanks KaptnKA,
You bet. I really could not believe how good it felt!
The manual was mean. It was so hard to park it in various spaces.

Try parking an F250 4x4 with manual steering. My 68 F250 4x2 with manual is a breeze compared to my 70 hi boy.

Very Nice Rides!! I can imagine parking the 4x4 in a narrow parking space they give you these days.
