Post by brentz »

aiit guys my dad is getting desperate to do his power steering conversion cause itfair bad with 33"s and we wanna go 35"s for it!
first things first its a fj45 ute with a 350chev in it and he went and spent a few hours and pulled apart a fj60 for the power steering box, pump, and the whole steering collum etc!
now he wants to no wats the best ways to mount it all etc
the main thing is where to actually mount the box?

you can use a 75 series tilt colum with a few small mods
alot of ppl dont like them cause they hang lower than the stock wheel even at max height

i posted pics somewhere of my fj45 with a 75 series colum with a brief description of what mods i had to make
