Do you have a B-body manual steering box? I sheared off 2 power steering bracket bolts in the block and it always squeaks when I turn now.

Hi Jeremy, sorry the cars I had were power steering. But... I believe the power steering boxes will interchange between the A and B bodies. So why wouldn't the non-power interchange too? You know that you'll wind up with forearms like Popeye if you take off the power steering! John

I'm thinking that a manual steering box would be geared better than mine. If i just cut the belt off on the one That I have, I would be Popeye.
Any thoughts?

Well, I hate easy-outs but if you've not tried to remove the broken bolts yet I'd give that a shot. Maybe heat them with a torch to break free any rust on the threads. In the long run I think the ideal would be to get the power steering pump secured again. That's my 2 cents, which may be all my opinion is worth on this one! I've broken off exhaust bolts in the past and the worst is the center one that doesn't go through. Many years ago I ruined a head trying to clean out the broken bolt with a torch. I was told "just hit it with the torch and you'll melt and blow out the bolt that's much softer than the cast iron" Obviously I got it tooooo hot!

I might give that a try when it warms up some. I'd have to clean up first. There is so much oil and soot on the block right now that If the sun hits it wrong it will burst into flames
