ford steering box help

[pmalavolti]

I have a 1962 Mercury Comet that I converted to '65 mustang steering with the help of the ridetech Tru turn system for a '65 Mustang. I then bought the Vi-king coilover conversion. Now I need the steering box. I am staying manual not power. I am not going to compete, but I want to be able to have fun with the car if I go to an event with a road course. But it will be a driver first. What box would work for those conditions. I was considering the roller idler already with the quick steer pitman arm.

Use the Borgeson power steering box. The car will be undrivable with manual steering. DO NOT use an altered length pitman arm, it will destroy the steering geometry we have designed into the Tru Turn

You need power steering. ABS or Borgeson make boxes that will bolt in and mostly clear the headers.
