Where to buy correct 67 manual steering gear?
 
I'm looking for a correct 67 manual steering box. Most places list them from 67 through the 80s but isn't the 67 a one year only because of the frame? I've been looking and searching and can't find any 67 year only steering box. You guys know where I can find one?

Do you mean steering box?

Do you not have one at all or are you just looking for a new one?

I have one but I don't want to rebuild mine myself. I wouldn't mind sending it out and having someone else do it though

If you don't find a suitable one for you.
I'll go through yours for you.

The 67 manual steering is the same as 68 and newer, (every 67 I've had was the same).
The only issue on a 67 is putting a 68 and newer style power steering box on which needs a "dip" in the frame that the 67 frame usually does not have,

These are the guys I would recommend.

Ok that's good to know. I thought it was all 67 steering gears. Thanks for the link too. I'll give them a call on Monday.

just the power boxes are different, that interchange was right it is 67-like 80 for manual steering.

If nothing works out I should have some boxes if you need one just holler. I would imagine you could get it for the ride.Jim
