Steering box compatibility

Hey Folks,
I have a very gently used red-head steering box from my f-150. I am planning on selling the truck and want to swap it into my f-250 psd. Does anyone know off hand if the boxes are the same? I'm assuming they are I just don't want to disconnect all the line and later find out they're not.

Thanks much!
Al C

I have always treated the 80-96/7 boxes as interchangeable, and it looks like they do too:

Looks like it should be a go, unless it is some sort of a custom build.

I too always heard the boxes were interchangeable. I know I put the box from a 88 BroncoII on a 90 F450 and could tell no difference.
