Pour some new life into that old steering, change over your Bel Air’s steering to Unisteer’s bolt in rack & pinion kit for smooth, defined steering and handling, no looseness, no wandering! You’ll be cruising like a champ.
This is a front steer center take off style rack & pinion that matches the stock front end and suspension. The rack is mounted to a one-piece mounting bracket that bolts into the same factory holes for the steering box and idler arm. The kit does clear the Z Bar and 4 speed linkage. If your vehicle had factory power steering, you will need to use our stabilizer bar mounts which are included in place of the factory mounts.
This kit is designed to work with the original factory front end and suspension.
This kit works on most small block and big block engine applications. Installs have been done successfully using Hooker Long Tube Headers. The kits are complete with shaft kit which includes two u-joints and shafting as well as a pump kit. The pump kits include a pump matched to the mounting bracket's gear, a reservoir, single V-groove pulley, and stainless lines. Big Block applications have a remote reservoir and a 3-line kit; Small Block applications come with a clip-on reservoir and 2-line kit. Serpentine Pulleys are also available.
Note: Kit can be adapted to fit your needs by selecting the pulley option above.
