Thanks for the work, Encho!

I added this to our Sticky; even though your write-up says for 87-96 I believe the steering boxes have been unchanged for decades and it should apply to 80-86, too.

As a matter of fact, the kit said it would fit any Ford steering boxes in big cars and light trucks made from 1964 on (i guess up to 1997). Yet i didn't want to exagerate so i only stated it up for the period-time i was sure about.

Yup. If you ask the guy at the 'yard to let you look at his Hollander, you'll see that all from 80-96 fit, as do many Explorers and other vehicles. If they're not the same internally, they are on the outside.

The biggest difference on the older ones is the overall length and the fact it works the opposite way, internals are basically the same.
