Installing flaming river box
Well I'm about to buy a new flaming river steering box for my 67 with PS, as I see this as the best all around solution to myloose stock box.
My question is....how hard should the installbe and are there any special tools I'm gonna need? It looks like a direct bolt on so i dont think it'd be too bad. Thanks.

RE: Installing flaming river box
probably the hardest part would be geting the pitman arm off the centerlink.
i had to borrow a special tool from a shop to get it off. you can find that special tool in the Official Handbook for the mustang. like my handbook is orange cause mines a 66. idk what color your would be but look in the steering/supsension section (3 for me) and it shows you the special tool/clamp for removing the pressed on ball joints.

Yeah the pitman arm can suck without proper tools.
After thats off you will have to remove a motor mount from the drivers side
jack up the engine
possibly remove the oil pan so the box clears the shock tower
