18 BORGESON '55-57 Chevy Steering Components '55-57 Drag-Link Adapter This adapter must be used when converting a power steering equipped '55-57 Chevy to a new GM 605 system. It allows the original power steering drag link and pitman arm to be used with the new box. Otherwise, you must replace the original drag link with one from a manual steering car. Get rid of that old leaky ram assembly and control valve... Bolt-On 605 Conversion Vastly improve the steering feel of your classic Chevy with our new bolt-on GM 605 conversion kit. The 605 is GMs most compact power steering box and works great in the limited space available. The extended sector shaft is a sealed separate assembly with its own lubrication. The heavy-duty bracket bolts to the original three mounting holes in the frame and utilizes a second strap on the outside of the frame to stiffen the box. The original pitman arm can be used with the new box. Weld-On Conversion Same conversion as the bolt-on assembly except the upper bracket welds to the frame. The lower bracket bolts to the three original steering box bolt holes on the frame. Specify whether your car has the seamed or seamless style frame. '55-57 Chevy Hose Kits Stainless Steel or OEM style 2-piece rubber hose kits are available for late model power steering conversions with self-contained pumps. Remote style pumps use 3-piece hose kit that must be custom made for each application. Call for details. '55-57 Chevy Steering Column Shaft Use this shaft if you want to convert to late model power steering but want to use the original steering column. With this shaft, you dont have to cut up the original steering box and shaft. The shaft is splined to accept the factory style flex joint shown above. No other shafting or joints are needed. '55-57 Chevy Pivoting Aluminum Floor Mount Late-model steering columns are harder to mount in Classic Chevys because of the large irregular shaped hole in the firewall. This plate bolts to existing bolt holes in the floor and securely and neatly mounts the bottom of the column. Polished or machined finish center ring swivels for easy alignment. For 2" diameter GM or after market columns. Power Steering Conversion Flex Joints The custom OEM style flex joints are designed to mate a 55-57 Chevy with original or custom column to the 605 conversion above. 605 box w/bolt-on bracket 605 box with weld-on bracket rear of bolt-on bracket 55-57 CHEVY POWER STEERING CONVERSIONS Part # Description 800102 Bolt-In 605 P/S Conversion Box 800103 Weld-In 605 P/S Conversion Box for Seamed Frame 800104 Weld-In 605 P/S Conversion Box for Seamless Frame 990001 Drag Link Adapter 053149 Rag Joint -Modify 57 Chevy Steering Column Shaft for DD Rag Joint 053134 Rag Joint -for 57 Chevy Replacement Shaft (990008) Modified for use with Splined Rag Joint 053152 Rag Joint- for use with ididit Column 909011 Column Floor Mount Plate w/Machine Finish Ring 909012 Column Floor Mount Plate w/Polished Ring 925103 Hose Kit, Rubber 925203 Hose Kit, Stainless 990008 55-57 Chevy Modified Original Steering Shaft, Splined
