    4 wheel power disc conversion, booster and MS recommendation

    I am putting 4 wheel discs on my 1969 soon, and already have the brakes selected. They are a fairly large, 2 piston model, so I am unsure how large a bore MS I need. I need help finding a good option for master cylinder, but even more help selecting a brake booster as it will tie to the...

    weird pitman arm?

    I asked this question in another thread, but it may get buried as it was random to the subject. I have a question about the pitman arm on my 1969 satellite. So, I noticed my pitman arm's splines look different than the ones I see online on the replacement ones. The ones I see online either have...

    alignment needed after steering box rebuilt?

    1969 Satellite. Newly rebuilt PS box by a pro (my old box was rebuilt). The only things I removed was the column and the pitman from the box when doing this. No steering linkages were touched. Installed it. Steering column can really only go on one way (or be upside down). The pitman arm does...

    Rebuilt steering gear, help!

    I received my steering box back yesterday and put it in today. I sent it to be rebuilt because it leaked very badly. Otherwise, it was ok. The company (one of the popular ones) that rebuilt it is closed today, so I cannot call, and I’d like to get it running this weekend. The feel is great and...

    dust boot for pitman arm to center link?

    I pulled my pitman arm when pulling my power steering box. It had no dust boot on it where it met the center link. I would like to put it back together correctly, but am having trouble finding the "dust boot". Also, should I pack grease under it when installing? I don't see a way to grease it...

    power steering gear removal, found a shim after...where??

    I recently pulled the power steering box from my 1969 Satellite. In this process I had to pull the steering column away from it as well as remove the starter for better clearance. After patting myself on the back when the gear lowered completely out, I noticed a shim on the floor of my...

    Magnum 14” wheels, disc brake conversion, what ya got?

    1969 Satellite with manual drums. Would like to keep my wheels. I’ve seen the Leeds ones, but wonder what else is out there (ends up being over $1000 retail). Not looking for high dollar/show, but just good cruising power discs. Thanks.

    Steer and Gear Modern "feel" PS box; Go with a quick ratio pitman/idler?

    I am planning to have my leaky power steering box rebuilt by Steer and Gear with their "Modern" feel option. I was considering also going with the quick ratio pitman and idler setup than many vendors offer. What are your thoughts on this setup for a cruiser (1969 Satellite convertible)? I need...

    1969 Satellite steering column coupling, how’s it work?

    I had to pull my power steering box today to either rebuild or replace. I followed the instructions per my service manual (although it didn’t simply drop out as it stated... I had to pull my starter to make room). How does the coupling from the column to the box actually work? I knocked out the...

    rebuilt power steering boxes, pitman arm interchange?

    I am looking at purchasing a rebuilt power steering box for my 1969 Satellite, and the auto parts stores around here sell various "brands" (I know there are great companies that I can send my existing box to, and the risk of using a retail chain). The question I have is that some of the boxes do...

    1969 satellite power steering, manufacturer?

    Who made the power steering boxes for these cars, Saginaw? Is it the same design as a GM (if I know how to rebuild a GM Saginaw, is it the same to rebuild this?)? Thanks.
