I recently purchased a 1972 CJ5 with manual steering. I am curious about switching it to power steering. Where can I get help with this mod. I am new to the forum and jeeps. I am not very mechanically inclined :roll:
The previous owner put a Grant steering wheel on but I feel the stock wheel would improve the road handling....am I wrong in thinking this? [addsig]

The stock steering wheel will be larger in diameter, which will increase leverage and make turning easier.

You'll need:
Power steering pump
pump bracket
steering box
hoses
pitman arm

Be sure to go ahead and reinforce the frame where the steering box mounts while you're at it, it's notoriously weak.[addsig]
