Hi everyone, Don from Canada here. I was reading the threads re: power steering from an Isuzu adapting into a Hornet. I have access to a Trooper, that is being destroyed & would like to get the parts out. Can someone tell me what to take ou?? I know steering box & ps pump, but not sure what else. Do I need the column, what about the linkage? at the bottom, pitman arm, tie rod. I'm not sure what to look for. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thx Don in Canada, 52 Hornet

    Maybe you'd get more results if you posted this on the Hudson Street Rod forum! They are much more creative over there. We're just a bunch of old fuddy-duddies here, who try to make do with the original Hudson parts we were stuck with, LOL!

    Don....The power rack and pump is about all youd be able to use......The rest of the parts like the linkages and mounts......ALL CUSTOM MADE TO RETROFIT THE HUDSON!........good idea, but a lot of measuring and custom fitting involved........good luck!
