Question '56 amd '59 differences ????

f100connection.com uses a Toyota PS box in their kits that fit F100 up to '56. Any reason why this kit wouldn't fit a '59?

'56 amd '59 differences ????

Well, I don't have a '59 but I have a '62 and a '53 and the boxes have different angles on the steering colum. It could be made to work with a custom steering shaft and some u-joints though...
I think the 59 frame is closer to the 62 than the 53, but don't quote me on that.

I had a Toyota steering box in my '59. That is, before I just swapped it out for an IFS with rack & pinion. Worked just fine for me.
