P. Steering pump for 56 Nomad
OK, here's one for you sharpies. I'm trying to add vintage power steering to my 56 Nomad. It's the type that uses a ram on the tie rods instead of the 605 type that gets its power from the steering box. I know that the original pump was on the end of the generator. Since I'm now using an alternator I want to use a pump that runs off the front pulley.
I've been told that the pumps for the 605 type boxes put out too much pressure and will blow out the seals on the ram. Is there a pump around that will work with the old style P. S. or can I decrease the pressure of a late style Pump?
Thanks for any help...Nomad MikeOlChvyRacr
Just in case......Happy Birthday Richard. .
