Toyota power steering box in a 64

Has anyone done this swap on the 61-64s? I found info on the 50ish f-100 trucks but nothing on a 64. Also did you use a ford power steering pump.

This is the same question i'm researching. Anyone out there point me in the right direction on this one? I have a 64 with 'ambiguous steering'. Would like to swap vs rebuild. Easier. And should work with a drop axle where other solutions won't.

I researched this for a while as well for my 64. I seemed find a ton of threads mentioning the swap but never really found the origin. I also am waiting on my drop axle. On a whim I tightened the adjustment nut and got a lot play out. I also gave the front tires a little positive toe and it drives way better now. I really like the CPP power steering box but just not ready to pull the trigger. I want to get my disc brake swap done first.

Frank-1 thanks for the reply and great suggestion. On your comment I thought to look for the adjustment nut on mine and discovered a number of loose bolts on the steering box. I'll put this all back to order and see how it does. Also discovered mono leaf springs as an option to get lower and keep the steering geometry.

Toyota Steering Box Swap For 1948-1960 Trucks - Ford-Trucks.com

I was told this would work on the 61-64 F100 trucks also. I have a 62' F100 but have NOT done the swap.

I'm in the process of putting a CPP 400 steering box in my '61. Not a direct bolt in, but not that hard a project...so far.
