'67 steering box - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

HuggerCST · 04-11-2002, 10:01 AM

I've got a manual steering box on a '67 1/2 ton that is worn out. Does anybody sell rebuilt ones? Or parts to rebuild? The used ones are usully worn out too, so I would rather have new.

You can get a manual box off a truck/blazer/suburban all the way to 1987. They are still available new from Chevy (GM part# 7815989)for around $350. LMC carries a reman for $230. You can also check your local parts stores. I would still try to find a good used one in the junkyard off a late 70's/early 80's that feels tight. Of course the fun part will be finding later model trucks without power steering.
