Re: My new 1963 SWB 5.3 Vortec Pickup

I agree...

However in looking at the pic of the box closer, it is a 2wd steering box, as the sector shaft is threaded and has the nut on it. That pitman arm on the bottom of the pic is the correct one for a 2wd steering box, and should work just fine on your truck Pat. If there is a clearance problem, the box may not be positioned correctly.
