Bolt pattern for totota steering box

anyone have the bolt pattern for toyota steering box?I need center to center measurments.I got a kit from sacramento ford to install a GM steering box on a 48 F1 but the boltholes are wrong.I was told they make a toyota kit now.they didn't have them for 48 when I ordered mine just for 53-56.Any help would be greatly appreciated.I wish I'd found this site alot sooner.I'd made a few changes from what I'm doing. THANKS ART

The 4 holes are 1 1/16" apart on the width by 3 1/8" for the length. I hope that helps and it also reminds me that my pump has been laying in the garage too long and I need to get busy and put it on the truck. But that means changing a bunch of stuff and not being able to drive it for a while.

It is a '54 F250. I have changed the engine to a '77 460 with a C6. Re-wire a number of components, but have not change out all of the wiring yet. I have an EZ wiring kit in the garage, but have taken it off the road to re wire. The brakes were all rebuilt and I built a bracket to mount a dual master cylinder using the original master cylinder bracket and welded a plate to it to hold the dual cylinder. I've put in bucket seats and built brackets to mount the seat and shoulder belts. I added a wiring setup to run a 7 prong trailer plug and installed a 5th wheel hitch in the bed. We've pull the fifth wheel a couple of times, but that is not for the faint hearted and we now have a Super Duty for that job and will only us the '54 for short trips. The body is still rough and needs a lot of work.

Also, this post may finally get me over 400.
