convert to power steering
I think I may have asked this a couple years ago, but being that my memory is the 2nd shortest thing on me, I need to ask again. Is it possible to put power steering on my 65 F-100 twin I-beam? If so what's needed? where do I find it? and any idea of the cost? Thanks Folks, Bill

Center cab end braces
I have a 65 slick and it needs the center cab end braces replaced LMC part #49-9132. I'm assuming I measure back and cut the section out and either weld the new in or can they I use carrage type bolts through the floor. I'd like not to have to re-paint the floor. Any suggestens would be appreciated....

Epoxy Primer
I used it on my 65 slick, and waited a year to paint so I could maybe find a bad spot or two and (I did) it was great and looked much like the day we shot it. It's a little tougher to sand out but is a real water resistant primer.

Window Glass
I have a 65 slick and somewhere in it's life some one put bucket seats in it. I now have a stock bench seat in it. I'm wondering if there is anything I can use to rub mild scratches out of the glass where the head restraints rubbed against it?

Sreering
Is there any kind of power steering booster or retro-fit unit for my 65 F-100? The armstrong steering is getting a bit hard for this 65 year old.

Thanks

Drive shaft bearing
I'm in need of replacing my center drive shaft support bearing on my 65 F-100 short bed. I'm a fairly good wrench but is this a project I best farm out to the local auto repair shop, or is it not all that bad to do up on jack stands. Any help or instructions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Bill
