Steering Box Brace

I've tried looking on the forums, but had no luck. Years of daily driving with a quick ratio box (power steering conversion) and wide front tires have lead to cracking of the frame near my steering box. I will repair the cracks, but I was wondering if there is a steering box brace available for the 64-66 trucks? All I could find were the 67 and later. Worse case, I'll fab one up, but would prefer not to.

Re: Steering Box Brace

I have not seen one that can be purchased online.

DOM tubing is best when making something like that.

I have the power steering gearbox adapter plates already as I had converted years ago. I'm actually looking for something similar to this, but for the 64-66 C10s.
