A beautiful car!!!

Only things missing would be factory Rally dash and appears to not have power steering (manual steering is pathetically slow and non-responsive)... the T/A Fast Ratio power steering is a very desirable option... practically an absolute must-have (IMO).

I hear ya Matt. I guess they would be missing if the car came with those items from the factory, which it did not. I have always thought the rear window luvers were cool as well.

Hey guys,

I apologize for hijacking just a smidge, but could I buy a T/A Fast Ratio power steering and put it in a 71 Barracuda? I had my steering box rebuilt and it's just awful. Mine's a PS car. Thanks, Erik.

Yes.... if you could find a T/A box. Actually, you could simply use the standard PS gear box and add the longer Fast Ratio Pitman arm, along with the longer C-Body idler arm (aka... fast ratio). The only concern you'll have is the shaft size of the gear box... there are two different sizes available. small sector and large sector.... '72 and earlier used the small sector 73-newer used the larger sector (as did the original T/A gear box also use the larger sector).

Then... be certain to ONLY use a Saginaw PS pump... the Federal PS pump does NOT keep up with high rpms and rapid motion steering response... it actually kills the PS efforts that you need and expect.

I know where there are a few but no one wants to pay for them. Few years back they were around $ 850 plus $ 300 for the fast ratio Pittman arm with raised lettering. Now I see the T/A PS boxes selling for $ 1200 alone. Also, you will to have them inspected and re-sealed which firm feel can do. I would have firm feel re-build the box with either a stage 2 or stage 3 (depending on firmness) add the positive caster A - Arm adjusters and a C-Body idler arm to eliminate the AAR/T/A hyper steering. But again, many don't want to pay for a T/A box

I have 2 Firm Feel Stage 3 boxes and they are awesome.
I keep getting talked into a Firm Feel stage 2. If its a 340, not a big block, then I would think that stage 3 would be better. The only issue is parking but at higher speed I think I would want a stage 3....what are your thoughts?

I have never driven a car with a stage 2 box however i have a good friend with a 73 Cuda and he has a stage 2 box and states pretty frequently that he wishes he would have gone stage 3. All I can tell you is that the stage 3 is VERY responsive so much so that the first time I drove my Challenger I thought something was wrong as there was no slop and a lot of road feel. It reminded me a lot of my 10 Challenger RT or even 01 ACR GTS Viper.

I want as good handling as I can get in my cars and that to me means a Stage 3 box. Each to his own and I know there are some on here and other forums which state that the S3 box is "too twitchy" for their taste.

I've driven a FF Stage-2... not overly impressed. I went with FF Stage-3 on my recent T/A ps box rebuild ... much better at Stage-3.... and by no-means is it stiff or hard to steer, even at low speeds or parking.. and I further have 10" wide rims/tires, as well as a small 11.5" diameter steering wheel.

Everyone I know who has had a stage-2 rebuild done by FF says they wish they would've gone Stage-3.. at least to truly get a noticeable difference in the rebuild vs the old worn out PS box.

I would also suggest that ONLY the Saginaw design PS pumps be used... the Federal PS pumps are much too slow and cannot keep up with fast motion demands, especially at increased RPMs.
