Hey guys, although I don't post much I do follow along on various builds and have (like many of you) been looking for a realistic solution to install a modern power steering box versus rebuilding the existing power assist system. I was about to purchase a CPP Toyota kit designed for an F100 from Ebay for my 71 D200 Adventurer SE just this morning and did some searching CPP's own website. There is a new kit that's supposed to be available either this month or next that uses a new box altogether that was designed and built for CPP exclusively. Although not for us "enlightened Dodge folk" but instead for the Chivies and Ferds I know I will be able to make this work. The box will mount just like the original it replaces and is based on 79-84 Toyota box but smaller.
Here is the link to the Chevy kit http://www.classicperform.com/Store2/St ... PSK-OC.htm
Based on what I've read from CPP the Chevy or Ford kit should run about $700 complete minus the pump and pump bracket. The box itself should be roughly $400 which is about the same a used or rebuilt (with core) Toyota unit if you can find one
Here is a link to a video made by CPP on this box http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0ekOMvTeVQ

Re: New power steering
Wow that's cool. Would love to know the width from the mounting face to the center of the steering shaft.

Re: New power steering
These kits using the Toyota box have been available for years. That is probably how some here came up with the idea to use them on a Sweptline.theregularguy wrote: i need this like a few years ago.
