For all you classic Mustang enthusiasts out there, if you’re wrestling with manual steering in your 1968-1970 Ford Mustang, it’s time to make a serious upgrade. The Borgeson Mustang P/S Kit is here to save your arms and enhance your driving experience. This power steering conversion kit is a game-changer for those who crave better steering ease, responsiveness, and overall driving comfort. Buckle up as we dive into the killer features, crucial components, and the unbeatable benefits this kit brings.
Say goodbye to the days of wrestling the wheel. The 14:1 quick ratio power steering box cuts down the effort needed to turn the wheel, giving you precise handling and better control, especially when you’re navigating tight corners. Borgeson makes it easy by packing all the necessary components into one kit. If you’re stepping up from an outdated manual steering system, this kit’s got everything you need for a smooth conversion. Quality matters. Borgeson assembles and tests their power steering boxes and pumps right here in the USA, using top-notch components from around the world. You get reliability you can count on.
WHAT’S IN THE BOX
Here’s the lowdown on what you get with the Borgeson Mustang P/S Kit: The power steering box is the heart of the conversion, replacing your old manual gearbox and making steering effortless. The P/S pump generates the hydraulic pressure needed to turn your wheels smoothly and consistently, ensuring you get that power assistance exactly when you need it. Connecting the steering column to the steering box, the included half rag joint ensures a secure and snug fit.
BEFORE YOU START
Before you dive into the installation, there are a few things to keep in mind. This kit is designed to fit 1968-1970 Mustangs with manual steering and 289/302/351W engines, so double-check your Mustang’s specs. If your Mustang has the factory Z-Bar clutch linkage, this kit won’t fit, and you’ll need to explore other options. Additionally, you’ll need a 2-row crank pulley for the conversion (not included), so make sure to grab one separately. Borgeson backs their kit with a solid 3-year warranty, guaranteeing the durability and performance of their power steering components. Drive with confidence knowing you’re covered.
IN SUMMARY
Upgrading to power steering is a total game-changer for classic Mustangs. The Borgeson Mustang P/S Kit delivers unmatched quality, ease of installation, and a significant boost in handling.
