PST's New Production Mopar 16:1 Manual Steering Box $459



Looking to improve your Mopar’s response time and handling? Mopars with manual steering of the 1960’s and early 70’s came with a 24:1 steering box ratio which resulted in 5 turns from lock to lock. PST’s new production Mopar manual box has a ratio of 16:1 or 3.5 turns from lock to lock which provides quicker response in and out of turns. Plus for those that track their car, gain weight savings and horse power by eliminating the weight of the power steering box and pump from the front of the car. This ends up helping with quicker weight transfer to the rear wheels and more horse power from eliminating the drag of the pump on the engine. PST’s manual 16:1 Mopar box is available for A, B, and E body Mopars like the Dart, Valiant, Charger, Barracuda Coronet and Roadrunner. Call 1-800-247-2288 or visit www.p-s-t.com or here is a quick easy link.

Manual Steering Box!

· Better feedback through the steering wheel allowing for better feel of what the front wheels are doing.

· Weight savings compared to having a power box and pump

· More room for engine swaps or header clearance

· Less rotational mass on engine

I just purchased one of these units as was wondering about the bolt head with the hole in the center that has the cotter pin stuck in it. The factory box has a solid bolt head with no hole. Please explain this.

Will this work with TTI headers without modifications?
Does it work with the ‘67 sector arm?

I want to know the same, except for a 67 big block car with Schumacher headers.

Also, is there a fabo discount, and if so how does that work?
 
Today I pulled the old 24:1 steering box out of my 71' Dart. The car is a 383/727 with TTi 1 7/8" shorty headers.
I did not attempt to remove the pitman arm, instead I dropped the drivers side tie-rod end from the hub side to get the drag link loose from the pitman arm. After removing the steering column from the steering box and removing the 3 steering box bolts I found that I was not able to rock the steering box upward with out hitting the motor mount, headers were not an issue.
So after removing the Schumacher torque rod and lower mounting plate that I have on this engine I was able to get to the motor mount nuts to free the drivers side up, placed a floor jack under the oil pan and raised the motor up about 2 inches and was then able to roll out the steering box from the top side. Reversed the process to install the new 16:1 steering box.

The 16:1 box does take a lot more effort to turn at slow speeds and slightly more when driving than the old 24:1 box,
the steering is now as tight as new car and will now respond to a slight wheel turn when driving. If your on the fence about purchasing this box I feel that it's worth doing just don't try to turn at slow speeds unless your rolling.
