PowerSteering

Here's the update on my power steering troubles. Last week I removed the steering gear and power steering pump, boxed them, and hide them in the shed. I ordered a manual gear with pitman arm, a Steering Spline Adapter from eBay. When the parts arrived, the pitman arm had been cut off with a torch. NAPA overnighted a pitman arm for $55. Four hours later I drove the car. Drives great!! Why the hell didn't I do that a year ago? Oh well, old men do stupid things. Thanks so much for all the suggestions and advice. This Forum is super!
