Okay. I put the car on a floor jack. Turns like a champ. Then I get to full lock on either side and it just screams. Any thoughts.

Hey guys. I just replaced my power steering pump. Id the a bleed valve either on the pump or on the steering box? I have air in the system and have been told just to put miles on it and the air would work its self out. I would like to speed up the process. Thank you.

Your work looks outstanding. Really nice. One more question. is your speedo electric or cable. If it is electric, is that a hard mod? What size guages did you use? They look just great.
