1961 power steering ?


Does any one know if there is a PS box that will fit or can be adapted to fit a 61 Parisienne?

My brother wants to put power steering on his 61 as well. He's just doing a disc/dual braking system right now.

any reason you don't want to use the original ram assist style, I've never felt a reason to change the OE on my 64 Custom Sport?

The 605 boxes are what guys are using.
The resto cataloges have teh parts available, there is an adapter plate for the frame.
Fairly straight forward install/upgrade.  Steering column shaft has to be shortened a bit.

61 bubbles should be manual everthing with W-motors tho!

I know it should be manual trans, brakes and steering but Cathy would not be able to drive it then and its her car. As for the W don't have the $. Do you have a link where I can get the parts

Try Ecklers(lategreatchevys) or Hubbards impala parts
I think most 58-64 suppliers carry the 605 conversions/parts
