Help identify please: power or manual gearbox?
I have been really slow updating this thread. I actually got this installed weeks ago.
I found a pump out of another Mopar (not sure what it was) at the Ecology Auto Wrecking in Wilmington, CA. I paid about 43 bucks for the pump and host. I went the Pick-Your-Part just down the street and found the brackets of a Polara for 10 bucks.
Here's some pictures of them dressed up. I need to get better shots of the pump in the car. I also bought new alternator belt and power steering belt.
I did flush out the power steering box. I rand through a few quarts of fluid which I dumped into a clean milk jug. The fluid came out relatively clean. I had my son move the steering wheel back and forth slowly to loosen any debris. I just had to make sure I kept filling the reservoir quick because it would empty FAST!
I used ATF fluid, but now I'm reading that I shouldn't. When I have a chance, I'm going to replace it with Power Steering Fluid. So far, no leaks or anything. Works great!
Now turning the wheel can be done with 2 fingers, but also I do have skinnies up front (for now) which makes things easier I suppose.
