Steering Boxes

[1975stepside]

I know 4x4's have different steering boxes than 2 wheel drive. But I don't recall if that was for manual steering or power steering.

Dunno about different steering boxes, but the pitman arm is different - pointing straight back on 2wd models, and towards the passenger side on the 4x4 trucks - that's why switching a 4x4 over to crossover steering linkage involves installing a 2wd steering box or at least a 2wd pitman arm.
