Re: steering box
I didn't have a power box on my 72 but picked one up from an 81 and it is 3-1/2 turns lock to lock, I'm not 100% certain but I think the 72's were 4-1/2 turns, the reason I'm saying this is because the upgrades in the CPP catalog state this claim. But sometimes I'm no help.

Re: steering box
yes I changed mine, I think it is a common "upgrade" I just replaced it with a stock box from a newer truck.
