    A see there is another thread about P/S problems but mines different. 53 Pontiac with a Camaro subframe. Old box was worn out so I replaced it with a new one from Speedway. Turns fine to the left but super hard to turn to the right, you would think it was a manuel box with big bias plies. Any ideas of anything I can try besides pulling the box and sending it back, I'm trying to get this build done and to my buddy (the owner) for his 65 birthday a week from Saturday. Running out of time.
