Power Rack & Pinion - 65-66 Mustang

The Power Rack & Pinion for 1965-66 Mustang by Unisteer Performance Products represents a modern steering upgrade engineered for classic car enthusiasts who demand responsive, direct control without the excessive effort of original manual steering gearboxes. This conversion transforms the driving experience of first-generation Mustangs by replacing antiquated recirculating-ball steering geometry with a contemporary rack-and-pinion design. Whether restoring a show car or building a street-legal driver, upgrading to this power-assisted unit eliminates arm fatigue during highway cruising while maintaining the classic proportions and underhood aesthetics of your 1965 or 1966 Mustang.

Unisteer's power rack-and-pinion design integrates hydraulic assist to reduce steering effort at idle and low speeds while preserving road feel and feedback at highway velocities. The rack geometry is precision-engineered to match the original Mustang's steering column angle and mounting points, minimizing modifications to the frame and suspension architecture. At 66 pounds and measuring 52.5 inches in length, this unit is compact enough to fit within the original engine bay envelope while delivering the linear response characteristic of modern rack design. The sealed pinion cartridge resists contamination and requires only periodic fluid checks, eliminating the labor-intensive maintenance routines associated with vintage manual boxes.

This power rack & pinion is ideal for Mustang owners upgrading from original equipment who seek improved drivability for extended road trips, show circuits, or daily operation. Installation requires basic mechanical competency and familiarity with steering column removal; Unisteer's direct-fit design minimizes fabrication work compared to universal aftermarket conversions. Compatibility is confirmed for 1965 and 1966 Ford Mustangs with manual steering. Enthusiasts pairing this upgrade with modern suspension components, upgraded braking systems, or engine modifications will find the improved steering response transforms overall vehicle control and driver confidence on both highway and backroad driving.
