Whats the easiest bolt in replacement for a Steering Box? This one is kinda simple, Pitman arm thru a hole in the frame to a drag link moves forward and back on the drivers side. Lares 3055 looks pretty close, what are my options?

What is wrong with the factory steering box?
Are you keeping this as an otherwise restored truck, or extensively modifying the vehicle?

Try Neal Jennings [email protected] One of the best early Ford steering box rebuilders in the country. Nothing wrong with the stock box if it's up to new specs.

My dad had the steering box rebuilt in the 1933BB truck. As I remember it got a needle bearing where the bushing went for the pitman arm.

I put some Molly lube into the steering box on my '35 truck in an effort to make it a little easier to steer.
