Hey, Allan, would you mind posting those pictures of the power steering setup on your H? Thanks!! Kirk

Here's the way the manual says to mount the torque motor:

And here's how I mounted mine to get the hydrualic block where I wanted it:

I don't have the typical pump for it, so no help there.

Thanks, Steve! That is all I need to see. My brother put power steering on his M, he used a Charlynn torque unit with a GM automotive power steering pump. He got it all hooked up and it would not work. I see now by your pictures that he mounted the torque unit backwards!

Glad I could help!

Another question. Is that flexable coupling necessary? My brother just used a straight coupling as the steering shaft and torque unit shaft appear to be in line with each other.

Another question. Is that flexable coupling necessary?

Don't know that one for sure. I guess if something happens and the front-end flexes or the shaft wobbles a bit, you would wreck the torque motor without it.

Who carries that flexible coupling?

Who carries that flexible coupling?

I've seen them on eBay, and you could check with Mike at Steel Wheel Ranch steelwheelranch.com
