fireball Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 I have a 52 buick super straight 8.. It is a 3 speed,,,, I want to convert this car to power steering but the shift levers for manual transmission are coming out of the gearbox only but power steering that comes with auto trans, The shift lever is close to the firewall,,, Is it impossible to have factory power steering and manual trans in this car??? Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Bruce aka First Born Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 First, WELCOME, to the chaos. 😋 I have never seen a 1952 Super with standard transmission. I had a 1950 Super so equipped. I can't really answer the question. What power steering column are you using? Where and how do you plan mounting the pump? Ben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph P. Indusi Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 Not easy to install a hydraulic power steering system in these years on a Buick even if you can get all the parts to do so. However, I did see an electric aftermarket power steering system on an early 50's Buick that seemed to work OK. Joe, BCA 33493 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Bruce aka First Born Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 OP has not been back in over a month. Sure would have liked seeing pictures of the 1952 Super 3spd. Ben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
