1965 Mustang with Long Shaft Manual Box??
#11
OK, I finally upgraded my box. I went with a Borgenson close ratio 14:1 power steering kit. It was pretty easy to install as I traded a friend an old welder for him to install it. Normally I would have done it myself, but I have been traveling a lot for work and really didnt have the time. I bought the kit from Amazon of all places.
Reviews: wow huge difference. Steers like a new car as I already upgraded the rest of the steering with poly bushings, beefed up swaybar in front, swaybar in rear and lowered the control arms like with Shelby's. I really like the way it drives now.

Glad you like it Mtn. I am also in Colorado and I am wondering where you bought your PS kit. I just took the old box out yesterday and one of my concerns is getting a new long shaft box back in the car. I disassembled the box in the car just so I could get it past the motor and suspension. I don't see how it would be physically possible to get a new unit in with my setup.

What part of CO are you in? I live in Highlands Ranch.

I am in Glenwood Springs. I talked to Colorado Mustang this morning and the only option they have is the power steering conversion for $1089. I can get a reman box from Rock Auto for $160 + core return or go with the same setup you went with from amazon for $956. I have always wanted PS but I also like to save money and have the car stay original. Tough decision.
