If power steering isn't an option I would consider rack and pinion. Has anyone else found a better option than the hard to steer manual steering box?

You can get the hoses adapted over from the pump you can find to fit your set up to the steering box in the link. I adapated the saginaw power steering box on 350 Vortec chevy to the power steering box on a Nissan Hardbody truck I am currently working on that way. And tj white is a member on here who converted his LUV to a rack set up to clear a 455 buick, and has some pretty decent pics on here somewhere...
