Hey all, starting on the power steering install for my car, which is actually a 56. I know several have done the swap and I was wondering if anyone has used the granada gear box. I have a great used gear box and pitman arm and it appears to me from a quick look that 2 of the 3 bolts line up. I am swapping columns anyway so I would like to swap in the granada box to get the lesser lock to lock ratio.

Also, I bought new granada inner tie rods, was wondering if I could just use my 56 outer tie rods, they are already new. Let me know what yall have done, thanks.
