Are these power assist like a 62?
If so can the cylinder be mounted on the other side and just run the hoses from the pump.

Factory rhd were all power assist. Would need the rhd power drag link for mounting the cylinder. Hard to get a rhd power assist box over here now. But they are still around.
Buddy of mine put an electric in line power steer unit under the dash in his 57 Ford custom 300. Rhd. Works well.
Have to get it all engineer certified over here. It is easier to get original gear.
