Re: 1955 Ford Customline Power Steering Filter
I understand that ... $$$ ...
Is it easier for your AUSTRALIAN cousins to source parts? |

Plenty more supply of varoius bits across the ditch. Rubber Connection in Australia caries a good amount of parts. Just got a top radiator hose and ignition switch for 55 Customline from them at a good price plus better shipping rates. Now looking for a rebuild kit for the double action fuel pump. Has the glass bowl at the bottom. Phil NZ |

Re: 1955 Ford Customline Power Steering Filter
The 'DITCH', I like that.
I forgot about their UTE. Have you been following the thread on pump kits? There has to be a source I would think across the 'ditch' ... |

Re: 1955 Ford Customline Power Steering Filter
One thing to watch out for and that is filter size. The early 50's cars used a bigger filter than later cars (No idea of the cutoff). Using the later, smaller filter in a car that used the larger filter may cause leaks . I know of a few friends with early Birds had this problem.
