Greetings, I have a '75 coupe with about 60k on the odometer. I picked up a complete Borgeson steering gear conversion with rag joint and Drag link adapter with new pump lines as well. I understand the general install instructions in terms of mounting the gear box and collapsing the column approx 2.5 inches. My question is what is done with the current power steering components such as the hydraulic ram and other lines that run the current PS system.
Also, what else if anything should I do outside of the general installation that others here have found beneficial.
Thanks in advance for all the input,
Pat

Lifetime MemberEither ditch the control valve, steer cylinder and hydraulic lines or if they are still good offer them for sale on here, eBay or Craigslist.
Your going to love the Borgeson box.

I still like the upgrade on my 73. You will like it too. No more leaks under the car and much better steering control.
