Thank you so much. I literally just ordered the parts an hour ago to do this. Your content and comments have helped so much. Thank you thank you

Nice! Can't wait to have power steering!

@alwayslearning8365 2 года назад

Thanks you made that valve rebuild look easy. I have a steeroids rack and pinion to install on my 67 but I'm still not sure if it would be worth the effort, and extra expense for the new headers. Maybe I will try rebuilding the old power steering system first.

@AlfsMustangGarage 2 года назад

Oh ya those rack and pinion conversions are quite a chore. Definitely not too bad to fix what you got till you figure things out.

@alwayslearning8365 2 года назад

@@AlfsMustangGarage Decades ago I removed the original factory power steering from my Mustang. It was constantly leaking and there were no new replacement parts available back then. Now that you can buy a complete original system new I think it might be less stressful to install than the rack and pinion system.

@AlfsMustangGarage 2 года назад

True. They also have the Borgensen systems too. If you already have manual steering, you would just have to add the gearbox, pump, and hoses. Then you can retain the original style steering.

Hello my favorite Mustang Tech! Holy cow, that was quite a complex control valve! Glad I was not doing it. lol I have no PS.....yet Blessings and cheers from Motown/Dearborn MI

Well done, l like it when people don't edit out their mistakes. Could you tell me where you bought the kit? While I'll refer to your excellent video. I want to have the exploded view diagram. Cause without that, it would look like a bunch of seals and stuff!

@AlfsMustangGarage Год назад

Oh cool thank you! I think I got that one from National Parts Depot. Its definitely nice to have the exploded diagram.

@royboy3597 Год назад

@yayanabaz Год назад

Thank you so much for this very informative video,i have two questions please. i am planning to rebuild a control valve of 59 Mercury, however i am not sure what the correct kit to order as there is only (Bendix) stamped and i didn't find any other code or something and, sure if the previous owners had replaced or it's the original part? it looks very similar to this one on the video. How easy is it to turn the steering wheel on a stationary old car not moving? Because in my case it's very difficult to turn the steering when the car is parked, however once it starts moving it gets really easy to steer you can steer with a pinky finger.

@janinedelcamp1941 2 года назад

Wow! There sure are a lot of parts for that...a take a lot of pics while disassembling, or save your great how to video.

@AlfsMustangGarage 2 года назад

Ya it's crazy all the small things packed in there hu?

@classicstangbrn8964 Год назад

Not done yet, there's more replace the 4 hose seats inside the control valve sometimes the hoses leak even when there'll new and the seats are available new.

We have completed our 1966 6 Cyl.. how ever I can not find any where the Torque Specs for the Castle nut & Bolts attaching the extension bar to the centerlink. Does any one know what they should be or how I can find them?

@AlfsMustangGarage 2 года назад

I can look in some of my old books but I won't be back to the shop till Monday.

@macelius Год назад

Just completed the install of a "rebuilt" one of these in a friend's '55 tbird (someone else started the install), it just pushes to one side and the slider seems stuck, any ideas?

@AlfsMustangGarage Год назад

Probably not installed correctly. Has to be perfectly center (with a small amount of error) or else it will favor assist to one side.

@barrybebenek8691 2 года назад

On the topic of steering…On my 68 FB, the steering column sits too low to the seat, causing issue to try and get in and out (legs between the cushion and the wheel). I am not sure in its past how this happened (as it’s been in the family since new), but is this height fixable? Can I adjust the bracket under the dash to raise the column (and wheel) to where is “should” sit? 🇨🇦

@AlfsMustangGarage 2 года назад

I'm not sure how it would be sitting lower than normal. Maybe start with all the mounting locations. 68 will have a collapsible column so make sure something hasn't happened there to cause that to kink or bend. Check the rag joint at the steering gearbox.

@barrybebenek8691 2 года назад

@@AlfsMustangGarage thanks for your response. I will check your suggestions. The car has never been in an accident ever so a bend or anything isn’t a thing. The floors were done once, but I was old enough to take picks, and they never removed the column, nor went up the firewall that far. The space between the dash and the column is too big too (dead giveaway). All other cars I’ve ever seen, the column is up tight against the dash and they don’t have issues with getting in and out of the drivers seat. 🇨🇦 On to check your suggestions.

@AlfsMustangGarage 2 года назад

Oh ya, should be relatively snug up in there. Just to see if something has loosened up too I suppose. Let me know what you find.

@michaelteel8490 2 года назад

Hmm I was doing this same procedure but the nut that holds the spring assembly down just keeps spinning when I try to loosen it.. I dont know how else to get it off :/ any idea as to why it might be happening ?

@AlfsMustangGarage 2 года назад

Does the nut have the nylon locking material in the middle?

@abandoned_classics5029 Год назад

I’m having this issue too. Threads are spinning with the nut.

@classicstangbrn8964 Год назад

That brass sleeve got screwed up because you snatched the ball out you have to use a puller not a pickle fork.

@frank.rittenhouse Год назад

Yea mine did the same thing with a puller. Bent the puller too…I chock it up to just a puller that was a little too big. Just throwing this out there for others who shop at oreillys or get the cheap shit like me.
