Power steering


I would like to instal PS in the 65 beaumont I am working on. I have all the brackets pulleys, pump and PS box but the stud on the draglink is smaller than the hole on the PS box pitman arm. Do I need to change the pitman arm or the draglink and idler arm. I cannot change the pitman arms from one box to the other because the shafts are two different sizes manual is large and PS one is small

Yes you need a power steering pitman arm. and be careful matching the linkage that you buy because the US models are not the same as the Canadian models in some cases.
