Default 1963 Galaxie Power Steering Issue

Working on a 1963 Galaxie. The steering is rough/uneasy off of dead center. Have had the control valve rebuilt and a new power cylinder installed but still having the same issue. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

The EASIEST way out is to follow concisely the DIAGNOSTIC ROUTINE and SERVICE/ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES in the 1963 FORD WORKSHOP MANUAL. There is no easy way out and this will save you a lot of $$$.

Hey KULTULZ have you moved? Your location now shows Fountain, Penn instead of W. VA.
Did you have to get permission from the Pardon and Parole Board to move out of state? Is the little thumb screw happy with the change?

It was a little tough ... (it's going to be tougher once they find out).

Oh yes. She says she doesn't miss me at all. A 12-PACK of D-BATTERIES and she is happy ...

No, I haven't moved. Read the new location carefully and think about it ...

Yeah, I originally mover here from NINE, TENN.

(The boy is seventy-five years old and has yet to grow up ... )

Someone said, "Why don't you act your age?"

I replied, "I have never been this age before, how am I supposed to act?".

I thought the fountain penn was a little strange when I read it but some of those Eastern folks are a little off. If you need any pointers on acting your age Let me know-I am 81 and can remember quite a bit from back when I was only 75.

Well, they are YANKEES so you have to expect it ...
