Ok so i have the steering box already. Its a Saginaw box from a 88 Chevy 2wd but the pitman arm wont work with the setup i have. I heard you need to get a pitman arm off a dodge but i cant find information anywhere about hat year or model dodge. Can someone give me some info on where to get one and what year and model?

 

I'd just use a box from a 77.5-79 f2504x4, much easier.

 

not to sound rude but i dont want a box from a 77.5-79 which is y i asked about the Saginaw box.

 

Search for "power steering conversion". There is a thread that has much detail about your swap along with parts needed. I think the author was 73 Ford Guy but I could be wrong. It contained what parts worked with what.

I have the thread saved but I'm at wrong puter.

 

can you get me the link later?

 

The term "Saginaw box" is a mis-nomer. This is what some peeps call Ford integral P/S.

What P/S gearbox would a 1977 F250 4WD (non Highboy) & 1978/79 F250 4WD have? Ford integral P/S.

 

I dont understand what you are saying here....

 

I used a dodge steering box an pitman arm

 

i am going with the inverted t steering which requires the 2wd box, and the dodge pitman arm. Do you know what year truck your box is off of? it looks like that is the pitman arm i need

 

I assume you want to get rid of the power assist P/S and install Ford integral P/S on your Highboy.

You say you don't want the Saginaw box, but this is exactly what the Ford integral P/S gearbox is.

1977 F250 4WD from serial number Y20,001 (not a Highboy), 1978/79 F250 4WD & 1979 F350 4WD use Ford integral P/S. The gearbox is made by Saginaw, so some peeps call it that.

A similar 'Saginaw' P/S gearbox was used on all 1969 F100/250 2WD's & F350's (from serial number D96,001), 1970/79 F100/250 2WD's & F350's.

 

ohhhhhh ok i see what you are saying. I already have the box that was posted in the picture above, i just need the pitman arm. Im not useing ford parts for this conversion.

 

double post

 

the box an pitman arm came off a 89 dodge 4x4 1/2 ton

 

75F350 is the author and I believe he has disappeared from here. Try "highboy power steering". It's 70 pages.
My puter at work is like freakin dial up after frontier conversion and I could not down load the page to check for you. He was very knowledgeable.

 

Ohhhhh thaaat one I've looked at it before I didn't see any years.. but I think I got the years figured out thanks for the help
