Re: power steering to manual steering

I remember when the power steering pump died on our 69 fairlane, instead of replacing it I removed the whole system and had to reset the caster settings to a standard steering setting, power steering set ups use lots of caster for more stability, but their a bear to steer when the pump goes, or when the engine stalls.
