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 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.

Re: Where to buy correct 67 manual steering gear?

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.

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
