steering box swap?
Is there a quick ratio steering box swap for these trucks?
I swapped the box on my 68 to a quick ratio from a 88. I heard that a jeep box would swap but looked at picknpull and the bolt pattern is diff |

Summit offers these: http://www.summitracing.com/oh/parts...et/model/c1500
I tried swapping out to one some years ago but after 3 of them that leaked, I went with a reman that wound up leaking anyway.

Re: steering box swap?
Only the jeep Grand Cherokee box works from my research. Box selection for our trucks is absolute garbage.

Re: steering box swap?
Was it a 5.2/5.9 GC? I've seen a few things saying its the same box but with the constant quick ratio vs the variable ratio our truck have stock.
