It looks like this is a steering box from a 1980-85 full size GM pickup so it should. It depends on what year your c-10 is whether it will fit without mods or not. You really should provide more information when you post a question on the board. A gear box could be a transmission, transfer case, or a steering box. This is probably why you haven't received any replies on your question up to this point.... Not a flame, just a suggestion...

You're right, My bad. It's for my 72 C-10. And it is a steering box. Just need to know if I can install it on my truck or do I need to snag another,

Thanks

It should work fine on your truck if it came off of a 2wd, which I think it did... I'm not sure if it is a quick ratio or not. I don't remember what year they came out. Some people don't like the quick ratio boxes. Maybe someone who knows will chime in. It may also have the later style hoses on it but all you would have to do is have a conversion hose made.

I don't know if you are familiar with the FAQ forum or not. Scroll down to the bottom of this page and you will see the "Forum Jump" box. Click on the little down arrow on the right side of the box and scroll down to "FAQ Truck Tech". On that page go down to "Thread / Thread Starter: FAQ Index thread". When you get into that scroll down to the "Brakes and Suspension related FAQ's" In that section you will see "HOWTO: Power steering conversion (67-72 trucks)". There is a lot of good info in this thread.

I could have just posted a direct link but there is a lot of good info in the FAQ section and now the new people that read this thread will know how to get to it.

Thanks to Krue for indexing the FAQ's
