Power steering gear box

I'm in the process of converting my 4wd Blazer to 2wd. Does anyone know if I can use the 4wd steering box with a 67-72 2wd steering setup. I was thinking I could just change out the pitman arm and it would work but I looked in the LMC catalog and there are separate part #s for 2wd and 4wd. Anyone..................?
Thanks
Dan

Re: Power steering gear box

The output shafts in the boxes are keyed differently.

Re: Power steering gear box

I just went through that. I actually used a front end out of a 77 c10. I pulled it out at a u pull it for 80 bucks and got the steering gear box and all. Good luck.
