i don't think there is much out there for replacment parts opposed to rebuild your own. other than complete units replacments. like vintage air.

So do you now need a stock steering column, gearbox, drag link and steering knuckles? Those Dodges did have factory power steering units on them,,,,,,I think they still sell parts for them at Autozone,,,,,there is a pump,,,,,they cut the drag link and put in a control valve,,,,,then there is a cylinder connected to the axle that pushes and pulls the center link to turn the wheels,,,,,,

a person can only guess how much this truck has been "modified" to accept a g-m saginaw steering box. i wouldn't put a lot of time into converting back to factory power steering as those systems were marginal at best. i would concentrate my time on how much frame rail repairs are needed to get an original manual box and column assembly back in the correct locatition and to function properly. good luck with the repairs............

THE PS WORKS FINE BUT I WANT TO REMOVE THE FRONT BUMPER. I WAS JUST WONDERING HOW AVAILABLE THE OE PARTS WERE. I MIGHT JUST BUILD OR MODIFY THE FRONT VALENCE PANEL AND HIDE THE GM GEARBOX. THANKS FOR THE RELIES!
