I'm going to a new power steering pump on my 2-Valve 4.6L that has -6 & -10 AN fitting on it. Does anyone know the of a AN to Stock rack fitting conversion? I...
Yes, there was a thread on CC about adapters to AN. The only place that I remember being mentioned was Maximum Motorsports. I know that they have a kit for...
