Tips for replacing power steering box in a 70 challenger

[Blasterb]

Any tips for replacing the power steering box in my 70 challenger? I have a new rebuilt unit that I'm going to install.. My car has a 383 with factory exhaust.

i replace mine in a 71 challenger and it was pretty straightforward... just don't forget to bleed the system after it's installed

Did you have to pull the torsion bars or exhaust manifold?

 

[rogue]

no. i have headers but either way i didn't have to pull them

Thank you

Look closely for that one spline that’s different on the box and coupler. It can only go on one way. You’ll probably need a puller to take off the pitman arm.

My big worry is that I wont be able to pull the unit without major disassembly. does it come out the top or the bottom?

Whatever way you have more room. Probably the bottom.
