I have studied the forum carefully for all the threads on power steering including this one Manual to Power Steering and have obtained the majority of parts to convert to power steering however I have a number of questions that are currently unanswered and would like to know if anyone can help out?
Part number# 572826 - 3/8" UNF special nut. What function does it have, from the drawing I can see that the PS box casting hole size much larger and there is a tab washer fitted, why not just place a spacer/bush in there? is there some movement expected?
Manual steering stops- Should I remove them or just leave them? If so how does the PS system know when to stop?
#562280 - Packing plate for reservoir. Would anyone have dimension of one and the position of the holes to drill, or even a buckshee plate going spare as mine is missing?
On the pump mounting bracket the drawing partially shows #90611503 a distance piece. Again would anyone have dimension of this or a photo of the part in order to make it up?
Also still looking for advice on a ball joint extractor #565446 for the track rods as I can see it needs to have a wide jaw. Are there any particular makes I should obtain?
