Default Re: Ford Steering gear box

I like to see people rebuild and restore original steering boxes. To me the much vaunted F-100 'conversion' is another band aid fix that doesn't address the problem.

In the '70's the big fix was substituting needle bearings. How did that work out? People started going back to the original build.

As has been stated numerous times, if a Model A hobbyist has the opportunity to drive an ORIGINAL low mileage Model A Ford they are almost always 'wowed' by how nicely it handles, drives, runs, and operates.

You know they were/are a very good quality car especially for their times, as to why they have survived in large numbers 90 years later.
