Not a Roadster, but last year I added power steering to my Gen I Type 65 Coupe. It was actually rather easy -- I picked up most of the stuff from LMR (Late Model Restorations) that specializes in the Ford name. They actually have a pump kit that includes the mounting bracket and hose. I had an advantage in that I had originally built the car with the P/S rack & pinion, so it was just a matter of hooking up the hoses, although I did have to go to another source for the steel lines that I had discarded when I built the car. As I recall, I also had to buy the return line separately and I added an aftermarket cooler at a small cost. It works fine and I am delighted that I did it. The total cost came to $635. I'll add that the people at LMR were very helpful and quick to respond to questions.

In addition to the P/S pump kit (#LRS3674KA), you may need the A/C Delete Kit (LRS-8511A). Those are the two biggest numbers, unless you need a rack & pinion.

I used everything from CVF racing, used a GM pump with reduced pressure it is a lot cleaner look than the Ford pump.

 

I have some of the kit supplied PS pieces, pump for sure but not the rack.

I'll collect parts and we can work out the grim and gory details. Someone on another forum just helped me with the request that I do the same. Pay it forward.

Give me a day or so. PM if interested.

Hey Jim, that would be great!! Let me know what you have and the details. Thank you very much, Ken

 

Ken,
I looked. Found the PS lines but couldn't find the pump, sorry.
Jim

 

Hey Jim, what would you want for the lines? Ken

 

Jim if you have the lines would you also have the cooler? Just a thought. Let me know. Ken

 

Ken,
PM your address, that's it. Call it Pay-it-Forward.
Never had a cooler that came with the kit.
