Kit is nice, thick tie rods, etc. But they are correct when they say it only fits the 49-50 oil pan. The pans sort of look the same, except for ribs, when under the car but the new style set up rubs the later pan as soon as you start turning the steering.

So I took my brand new setup off and rebuilt the factory stuff with mix of new, NORS, and NOS. Steers fine without the twitchy yet sloppy feel of a worn out shoebox...
