Re: '54-'56 power steering question.....
Ford stopped using it on full size cars in 65 but continue to use it up to the fox body era on intermediates and compacts. Even used it on Lincoln Versailles. Many complain about the system, I never saw their reasoning. I believe early Corvettes used a form of the same system. My last car with it was a 68 Montego, zero problems in the 205K miles I drove it. Drove nice, not twitchy just relaxing ride. There is 1 zerk fitting were the control valve hooks to the pitman arm often overlooked on grease jobs and 1 on the control valve that is often over lubed on a grease job. Best to do them yourself.
