12Valvie Into a Ford

[AWard]

Im getting ready to do a swap . Is there any problem i might run into with the power steering pump and all that ?

12V motor into what truck? I didnt have any problems with the 12V in my 99 F350. I deleted the vacuum pump and used the steering pump off of a 4BT out of P30 bread truck because it was a more compact way to do things, and there already is an electric vacuum pump under the hood for the HVAC controls. I havent had any issues with it since I installed it. A few custom lines are all that it took.

So would a stock dodge power steering pump work?

Yes ,

the stock dodge Vac/steering pump will work.



Thanks

I highly recommend the steering pump mods on the 2nd Gen 12 valve forum. I will likely do mine again for even easier steering, made a huge difference in low speed steerability. I used the Dodge vacuum pump to replace the Ford electric pump and accumulator and absolutely prefer the gear driven pump since it operates much faster and with more pressure. Hooking up lines is extremely simple. Also didn't have to relocate battteries at all.
