I'm in the middle of the Borgeson Power Steering conversion. are there any good instructions here on the Modifications required to the Steering shaft. Im just trying to make sure I get it right. Thanks

Get yourself a Borgeson box. Here’s a good write up. https://www.forbbodiesonly.com/moparforum/threads/swapping-a-borgeson-steering-box-in-a-1970-charger.246108/

Decided to put power steering back in the 71 and tried a Borgeson conversion. So far so good, all went smooth, works great and no leaks. Also put fresh meats up front and running 255 60 15x8 on all four. A little pricey but, love it

...is a 62 Dart -- 440 motor -- TTI headers -- After market tilt steering column, which is a different connector configuration from the column to the steering box. -- If the Borgeson unit has the shaft connection in the same location as the Mopar box, then it should be simple to hook up. --...

X3 Installed a Borgeson in my friend’s Charger, it was the best upgrade to his car. I bought one for my Charger, getting ready to install it any day now. I can understand keeping it stock or original, when it comes to safety, you can’t beat better steering, brakes and new wiring harnesses.

very nice.. yeah i always doubt stuff like paying soo much for a steering box.. but it's worth every penny :)

You don’t have to shorten the column by an inch or so? Or is that in certain models?

just FYI if you are going from power steering to borgeson you don't have to modify the column at all..

You only have to shorten if you had manual steering i believe.. a PS column is already too short for a borgeson, thus the longer adapter.. It's bout 1.5" longer than stock

put it on marketplace for $100.. better than trashing it.. someone will buy it.

Go with Peter Bergman. I used his Borgeson box kit and the steering column to Borgeson adapter was a great solution.

I have a Borgeson box sitting right beside the headers lol. I figured I'd get headers now since I have to pull one out to install the box.

Can you fit a Borgeson box, it’s brand new and modern.

I found some damage and my power steering pump's pulley. Borgeson makes a new pump, it's there 800338. Only thing is, it's a 6 3/4" pulley and the one I have is around 4 5/8". Does anyone think this would this cause any problems besides maybe a bigger belt?

I bought a Borgeson kit from Bergman. Happy with it. Only thing I ran into on my 65 was my original box to k frame bolts were smaller diameter than the holes in the box. I made sleeves for the bolts and went with it.

The trip to Van Nuys few weeks back. I had Rich pull on the bracket as I tightened it. The belt was tight. Either the pump is not up to the task, the belt slips despite adequate tension or the Borgeson unit just needs greater pressure. I don’t know where the problem lies just yet.

Is the box truly "On Center" The input shaft on the Borgeson doesn't have a locator so it can be assembled in any position... If you are one spline off you'll have slop it what you are using as "On Center" The reason for this is the true center is ground to a tighter tolerance that the rest...

Thanks for the response. So I went ahead and installed the remanufactured box from Autozone. But after looking at it I'm fairly confident it's a Lares brand box. It appears to be doing alright. I've not driven it much. The only problem I had was I heated the original crush washer to restore its...
