Power Steering Parts | 1950s–1979 Classic Ford Cars & Trucks (Factory Power Steering Applications)
Hydraulic assist systems introduced on mid-century Ford vehicles rely on a coordinated set of pumps, control valves, cylinders, and hoses to reduce steering effort while maintaining proper steering geometry and road feel. This category includes ford reproduction power steering components such as control valve kits, ram (cylinder) rebuild kits and boots, pressure and return hoses, pump seals, pulleys, dipsticks, filters, and related classic Ford power steering parts used on factory-equipped systems.
In a typical assist setup, the pump generates hydraulic pressure, the control valve directs fluid based on steering input, and the cylinder (ram) provides mechanical assist to the linkage. Variations may occur depending on model year, steering linkage design, pump manufacturer (such as Eaton or Ford), hose routing, and mounting configuration. Worn cylinder boots, leaking shaft seals, or deteriorated pressure hoses can affect assist balance and steering response. When restoring original systems, matching control valve style and pump configuration helps maintain factory-correct operation and alignment integrity.
Since 1978, C&G Ford Parts has remained a second-generation, family-run business focused exclusively on classic Ford restoration parts. Experienced staff are available to help confirm correct fitment when details matter.
