My experience as well. My belt is tighter than I'd normally like, but if it stops the belt squeal, I'll take the tradeoff

If you already bought the borgeson box, which it sounds like you have. Bergman Auto Craft are the makers of this and sponsors on this site. Peter Bergman can help, contact him. @BergmanAutoCraft

That was probably a win-win!

The noise is belt squeal, zero doubt about it. Not the box or pump. The "hissing" is the box, but that's the least of my worries at the moment. As far as the tire iron trick, I'm well versed lol. I've been in industrial maintenance most of my career, much of it involving mechanical...

Try a Lares 11043. Check them out, I think Summit has the best price. Its 2.5 turns lock to lock.

Well, now that you've "triggered" MY ocd, I have to fight with myself to leave it alone! Thanks! (Sarcasticly speaking) lol

That won't be for a while. That kit is 1,400 bucks

UPDATE: Ehrenberg messaged me and said the borgeson isn't as effected by shims as the factory unit and that it shouldn't hurt anything to experiment with it. I removed the valve to take the shims out and I remembered I had a another backup pump on the shelf. Exact same part number. I took the...

The box was reman. by a business in Winnipeg called Autoline. I ordered the box at a Piston Ring location nearby. If this is not a Mopar steering box but was accidently put in a cardboard box with number 55-6546 on the label would the mounting holes to the frame and metal tubing to the...

...car was in pieces when I got it, assembled it cranked the motor over and it was leaking from both seals, not a drip a steady flow, bought a Borgeson and put the T/A box and pitman on the shelf with my other high dollar stuff. Talked to the past owner and he stated he could send it back but I...

Great write up KD, I’m almost a member of the borgeson club.

If this is a fast ratio at a cheap price, I hope it is also durable. The Borgeson is a standard 3 1/2 turns but is still considered a “Fast Ratio” of 14 to 1. If the Lares unit is a full turn tighter, that could be around 11.75 to 12 to 1. I had the longer Fast Ratio Pitman and idler on my...

Yes, I bought mine directly, put it in with hybrid coupler etc....and have a small slop at center. Checked and the movement is in the box.

...shift arm shown was not used. Not sure how a column shift would work for this application, I'm sure there's a way you would have to contact Borgeson. pretty simple I completely disassembled the column blasted and repainted. The bearing slides into the bottom of the outer tube and it held in...

...B-body steering column have a lower bearing? Mine doesn't have one, and I haven't found any information about it online. I've installed the Borgeson steering box, and the angle from the shaft to the gearbox looks odd. The steering column, and therefore the shaft, are positioned via the column...

I bought it from Rock auto. Cheapest price I could find. Came quick to. I felt the difference as soon as I put the box in, there was a few inches of slop in the steering wheel, now there’s none.

...I do have a kit with new o rings. Not much online that I could find, but how difficult to IRAN? Should I just swap out with Steer and Gear or similar? Not interested in Borgeson for this car, trying to stay close to original. Advice much appreciated from those who “have been here done that”.

...a quick strut. Rebuilding those things can kill you. That said, from what I gather the biggest advantage of the macpherson strut conversion is the switch to rack and pinion steering, but what rack and pinion unit are they using? Mustang II? Is that really better than a Borgeson steering...

Cap, I answered your question in post #34. Look at pic #2, it shows the 1/4" washer I added to bring it in line. As I said, I quizzed Peter about this back in 2014 and thought they fixed the issue back then.
