February 1, 2012 “I have a 1948 Pontiac; it may need a steering gear box. I can find several companies
but have no idea what to order or what's compatible. I ordered a 300 plus wiring harness that was from RF and ended up cutting out the fuse box
and their wiring diagram looked like some kid with a ruler from jr high drew it. I also want to change it over to a 12volt and can't even get a straight answer for that.
( wanna keep my dash board guages which are rectangle).
So I'm touchy about who to trust. ”
