Quick ratio steering?
 
Is there a quicker ratio steering box avalable for the 1973-87 1/2 ton trucks. Miin kinda reminds me if an 87 KW. I'm sure the wife would like a little quicker steering.

I remember seeing a company called AGR that made one for these older trucks. Maybe they used to and do not anymore?

They changed the gear box design in 1980 so I'm looking for an 80-91 truck outside the frame rail gear box to see if I can swap the quick ratio guts from an 80's quick ratio IROC gear box into it.

I will pick one up the next time I am out at the pull it yourself wrecking yard and give the guts swap a try.

Two gear boxes and a rebuild kit will run me about $85 but I already have the IROC box and will need the rebuild kit for it anyway so it will really only cost me $25 and some time to give it a try.

This is a pretty low priority project for me since it is for the 67 C-10 that is far from drivable so it may take me a while to get to it.
