Gear box question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I ordered a 68 steering gear box from redhead, when I pulled the one that was on the truck, I couldn't install the new one. I measured the input shaft that goes to the rag joint and came up with 25/32" for the redhead unit. The one I pulled off was 1/16"smaller.

I'm waiting for a call back from redhead. They are looking into this issue.

Anyone know what's going on here? This trucks been a puzzle trying to figure out lol. Slowly but surely.
