'97 to '98/99 T-steering conversion?
 

could anyone direct me to a thread that explains how to do the conversion to the newer steering system?

I used the part numbers about 1/3 down the page. Google "rock auto discount code" and punch that in if you order from them for a few $ off.
I just put that stuff on my truck about 6 weeks ago. Much better but my steering box is wasted and needs to be replaced. Parts came from rock auto in 2 days[guitar]
