volare (type) front alignment

After driving my 56 off and on for about 10 years, I finally had the front end aligned by a pro. It drives great!

cool! I have the Cordoba IFS and has to replace a rebuilt steering box with a new Borgeson 800127 steering box. Pricey but much better.

Dan

How did you determine the pitman shaft diameter? My pitman shaft diameter just outside of the steering box is 1 1/4 OD, but the 800126 sure looks like my box. At least in the picture.
I have the 1976 Dodge Aspen front clip installed.

Don't mean to hijack your thread Thomc. I can hardly wait to be in the alignment stage of my build and glad to hear you are satisfied.
