Power steering conversion 140-160 1971

The power assisted steering box and pump are bolt on items. You may also have to change the idler arm, I can't remember. I've seen several '74 140's with power steering. I can't ever remember seeing an eariler 140 with this option. When I was looking into this mod for my old '68 145 I was told that it was completely bolt on except that the upper steering shaft needed to have the newer coupler welded on so the newer lower shaft from the '74 steeering box would mate properly. Its supposedly a very nice upgrade.

Good Luck!
