3 bolt vs 4 bolt power steering box
Hi all,
I am currently working on a RHD converted 1994 f250HD 4wd ,single cab LWB .
Currently has a 460/E4od combo which I have to return to the previous owner to be replaced with a built 300/ 5 speed. I also have a 1982 factory RHD F250 2wd as a donor. The 94 has a 4 bolt steering box and the 82 has a 3 bolt. My dilemma is the 82 steers really well and has 2.5 turns lock to lock.The 94 has over 4 turns and frankly its very vague and difficult to figure out what the wheels are doing.
Are there pros and cons to either box ? Is there a purpose for the changeover if indeed both styles are used in LHD models at all. Any info or advice appreciated.
Cheers Doug
