Box is installed and truck drives pretty damn good. Did take a day to find the correct pitman arm since being at stock height I needed the 99-2000 pitman arm instead of the 97 version.

Will keep updated as I drive it more. I have noticed that the steering feels a lot more fluid when turning and easier to maneuver

Anyone know someone that might want a core steering box

lawl. now care to enlighten me what you have on agr?

 

[Zmann]

pm'd

did u install the box yourself?

if so how bad was it to do ?

why the pitman arm drama did AGR list the wrong one ?

 

[Agjake11]

Had a alignment shop down the street from me install it.

The pitman arm issue was I bought the 97 moog version and it had a slight dip in it so it was hitting the panhard bar bracket since I'm at stock height. Then the ford 97 version was tried but was the same. Turns out the 99-00 arm is straight and that's what worked. Jason said that the 99-00 number is listed in their book about the part and the guy installing it got the number from agr.

They were pretty helpful as the installer called and talked to one of the tech guys up there to get the right arm on.

What's one of those bad boys worth? My box is shot from hanging a plow on it. I'd love to tighten up the steering with a brand new box

 

[Agjake11]

Pm g racing and he can set you up. You might not even need the pitman arm to change.

Did your steering wheel straighten out after the new box of did they have to adjust the drag link? Just curious.

im not exactly sure how he centered the wheel after the install. i know they would have installed it with the wheel off center and then he put it on the alignment rack and centered the wheel. how i dont know cuz i wasnt there.
