Gemmer steering box ID help
I think its from a big truck, 5DC62 is cast in below the GEMMER. Any help would be appreciated. The mounting flange is bigger than our 57 F100.

Any chance of a picture?

A larger size unit was used on the bigger trucks. However, the last pic of the end plate with the adjustment screw and lock nut looks a little different than I expected. I have the larger Gemmer unit in my F100. Took a few modifications but worth the extra mechanical advantage you gain. I can't give any help with the casting numbers and doubt if you will ever unlock their mystery!

I would like to put this in a 57 F100, how did you do it? Trim the casting, open up frame area? Thanks
