Power Steering Conversio n 62-72 Mopar Small Bloc

The Borgeson Power Steering Conversion Kit for 1962–1972 Mopar small-block vehicles delivers modern steering control to classic Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth platforms. This complete power steering conversion system replaces manual steering boxes with a hydraulic-assist unit engineered specifically for small-block Mopar engines, making vintage cars significantly more drivable in modern traffic conditions while preserving original underhood aesthetics.

The kit features a 14-to-1 steering ratio with a 1-1/8-inch sector shaft, sized to integrate seamlessly with Mopar's original steering column and suspension geometry. Borgeson engineered this conversion with iron construction and black paint finish to match vintage Mopar engine bay standards. The 14:1 ratio balances responsiveness with parking ease—lower ratios demand more steering wheel turns at low speeds, while this specification provides workable steering effort at highway speeds without excessive lock-to-lock rotation. Proper ratio selection is critical for drivability in both tight maneuvers and cruising scenarios.

Restoration builders restoring 1962–1972 Mopar small-block vehicles commonly choose this conversion when upgrading to modern conveniences without compromising original appearance. Street rods, weekend cruisers, and driver-quality restorations benefit from reduced steering effort during extended highway use and tight parking situations. The conversion maintains compatibility with original Mopar steering linkages and column configurations, simplifying installation on vehicles that still retain period-correct suspension and steering geometry. Weighing 46.2 pounds, this power steering box integrates directly into the existing frame-mounted steering box location.
