How to Build the Ultimate Steering Linkage for My 55’ Chevy Truck | Mustang II IFS Retrofit

In this video, I walk you through how to build the ultimate custom steering linkage for my 1955 Chevy truck. This step-by-step guide covers everything from installing DD shafts and steering universals to creating a high-performance steering column setup. I retrofit the truck with a Mustang II IFS system and demonstrate how to connect the steering column to a rack and pinion using a precision heim joint standoff for smooth and reliable steering.

Whether you're building a street rod, hot rod, or any custom vehicle with a steering column and rack and pinion, this tutorial will give you the tools and techniques to make it happen. The steering linkage system in this video is not only perfect for my 55 Chevy but can be adapted to virtually any car or truck that needs a solid connection between the steering column and the rack and pinion.
I'll cover the essential components, including the DD shaft, steering universals, and how to create a smooth, durable steering system that delivers precise handling. If you're looking to upgrade your car's steering for performance, comfort, and reliability, this is the video for you!

If you're working on a custom car build, classic truck restoration, or retrofitting a Mustang II IFS system, this video will give you the knowledge and skills you need to successfully install and customize your steering linkage.
