“I built this Jeep to handle a variety of terrain,” Todd Tice told us. “The coilover five-link rear and three-link front suspension provide excellent articulation for rockcrawling, and it is stable enough for hammering the desert at higher speeds. I wanted the Jeep to be able to handle most off-road challenges and still be able to cruise down the highway. This is an everyday driver,” he added.

THE THIRD TIME’S A CHARM

REMEMBERING KEN BLOCK
The automotive and racing world was rocked by the sudden passing of racing phenom, internet sensation, and master of all-things automotive Tom-foolery, Ken Block on January 2nd.

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 If you’re stepping up from an outdated manual steering system, this kit’s got everything you need for a smooth conversion.

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.

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.
