I am rebuilding a 1967 Pontiac Firebird, it's a FIRST GEN F Body just like the Chevy Camaro, and today we are installing all new inner and outer tie rods, along with a new idler arm, and new pitman arm. In addition, a new power steering box as well to complete the steering system on this Pontiac Firebird - Chevy Camaro.

“Wrenchin tin indian” older Pontiac’s where called Tin Indians. Making great progress. Gotta save them birds!
Very useful and detailed video! A huge thank you for it👌🏼...a Hungarian guy from Germany.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
So sugest that with the steering box centered that prior to connecting the rag joint bolts that you also center the steering wheel.
That is a good point, I think in the end I did do that.
I appreciate your time to explain everything, great video. I used all your information to set up mine. Thank you
You betcha, if you need anything just let me know.
You just earned a new subscriber. At first I was frustrated because the view from up top was not good. Then you showed it up close again. Great job.
Thanks for the sub! Let me know if you need anything else!
Another great job! I liked the explanations you shared as you walked through the steering linkage parts and assembly. I'm looking forward to more content!
Thank you sir, I try to do my best to make it as simple as I can. I sure do appreciate you watching!
Very informative, I have an old Plymouth I'm replacing everything but the center link. Since my Pitman is back ordered I was curious if I should put tie rods on before the Pitman. Now I know to wait for the Pitman to arrive to make life easier. Excellent video!
Glad it helped, would love to see that ole Plymouth in a video soon!
Name the channel point of no return
Great explanation and video Brian !
You’re a beast. Thank you
Nice job brother keep it up
Hey keep up the good work I love following this build I myself looking at a 69 Firebird in this area that some people would say is a basket-case yes it needs some floor work yes it needs everything including glass but it's their it's 95% complete and the original drivetrain in it but that's going to need work and I should be able to pick it up for a good price
Go get that Bird James!!!!
@@ArrowheadGarage hey do you have an email, I wanna send info. But keep it out of public chat about this bird
Nevermind I found your email address I sent you a message
Awesome maan! Thanks
Awesome shop
Thank you sir!
When you take the old ones out ,if you don't move the spindles the new one should fit right in .That is if it was pretty close to start with. Of course you can only get it close so you don't have to tighten the hell out of it and put the cotter pins in. The alignment shop can do that. Just don't leave it so loose you crash on the way there !
Thanks great advice Brian, since I pulled my entire front end apart, I had to go this route. Again, great advice for others who might just need to replace and not doing a full rebuild.
Thanks for this advice Brian. I'll remember this when I'm ready to go get alignment. 👍
Keep up the good work As for a name all can come up with is “P square “ or maybe name it after your Brother ?
Great Video, I like how you put the torque specs down, what steering box did you go with? (Minson Garage might work?)

poncho precision. what brand components are you using
I imagine this is essentially the same set up and process as on the larger full size Pontiacs? Any differences? Mine is a '77 GP
It's going to be pretty close to the same, let me know if you have any questions.
@@ArrowheadGarage Do you have a video doing upper and lower ball joints? What's the best method to check them?
