Manual steering box fitment question
Good thread.
Let me put this in it just for reference.
Manual Steering Box...assistance needed...
Manual Steering Box
I've only done a couple and all had needle bearings.
I've got a pile of junk yard pulls.
(Mostly from A bodies)
Someday, if I ever rebuild those, maybe I'll find bushings.
Maybe I've been "lucky".
From the Big Block Dart page.
"62-76 A-bodies, 62-72 B-bodies, and 70-74 E-bodies all used the same manual box. Most of these boxes used bushings throughout, however, the B-body V-8 units were built for more abuse and used bearings internally instead of the bushings. "
The one on the left looks very familiar.
I can't say I've ever noticed the one on the right.
I'll have to check the pile.
And my B bodies.
Right now I'm pretty sure the 67 B car had the one on the left in it.
I replaced with one that looked the same. I think.
I'll have to check the 69 383 car too.
