Steering Gear Box Year/Model Application
Hey guys I was wondering if anybody knew what steering boxes fit what year of trucks. I have a 96 f350 that needs a new steering box and I have some mid 80s and early 90s f250's in the back 40 but I'm not sure if they are the same box.
Thanks for the help.

Steering boxes are wheelbase specific. If you have a longbed crewcab pickup, then you need a longbed crewcab steering box. The steering geometry changes depending on the wheelbase.
But to be honest, I don't know what would happen if you used the wrong box. I would guess that the tires would scrub when you turned. Your tires might wear out quicker, but I don't know how it would affect handling.
