Alrighty, brand new 16:1 manual box from Rock Auto.

I have a 74 Rallye Challenger, power steering. If i buy this box, what else will i need to make this happen? Last time i read about this, and asked this elsewhere, i ended up pulling some adapter from something in Pick-a-Part, and it was a nightmare. I like simple and easy.

Part one:

Do i have to buy the Firm Feel $125 (read: $200 Cdn) adapter? If i do... will that be EVERYTHING i need? Bolt in and go?

Would it be simpler and cheaper just to buy a manual column (i know a guy who's likely got one) from a 70-74?


Part two:

If i buy the fast ratio pitman from Firm Feel, do i need the fast ratio idler? Thats another $100 (read $150 Cdn).


I'm not worried about effort, or parking... i'm a big boy.
