will this box work if you are converting over from a manual steering
Will this work on a 4 wd, 72 k5 blazer if I change the pitman arm to the nut and washer style (like it is on 2wd)? I believe that is the only difference
I’m paying a shop to do this? Too bad I’m not mechanically inclined
why won't it work for the '67 c10 ?
Would this upgrade work on a 63 c10???
Is the same pitman arm used or would I need to purchase a separate one?
How different is the steering feel? Borgeson says this box is faster, but has a firmer feel than stock. Is this true? I think the stock is much too over-boosted and too light.
Just a note.. My 85 High Sierra had a 12mm 12 point pinch bolt holding the steering coupler. I damn near rounded it off using a regular socket. Was too caked with years of crap to see.
What is the torque for the pitman arm bolt?
I can't to put a Borgeson 800 on my '71 Chevelle…..
Did you have to remove the steering wheel and or listen it to allow the shaft to be hammered up? Thank you. About to do this on my 68 c10.
You forgot to put the bumper bracket back on
Awesome, thanks for the quick video, I'm off to change mine out in my 1980 chevy k5 in the morning, wish me luck!!…lol small job but never know with these rigs..lol
why wont this fit a 67?
How much attention should I pay to the position of the pitman (splines) so I don't change the steering – or is this not an issue? Also, same with the rag joint. It's splined too. Just don't want to get in the truck and see my steering wheel is 1 o'clock or something.
How come not a 1967 C10? You can change half the rag joint if the splines are different, or even the intermediate shaft from a 1967 Blazer. The pitman arm is the same. What about flushing old fluid and installing a filter in the low pressure line, especially one with a magnet. You can buy one for this purpose or install an A/C orifice tube from any model in the pipe the low pressure line. Just saying, best practices. Something I was shown in 1971, the only difference was we rebuilt them and used a small engine fuel filter. ASE Master Tech since 1978 – Retired
Great video. Where can I get the compression fittings for the hoses?
quite the mechanic I am….I wrestled with the column forever trying to loosen it so I could get the steering box out….when all I needed to do was remove the bumper bracket and it would slide right out! This was when I rebuilt my stock box. Buying one of these quick ratio boxes, so at least now it will be easier this time. Great video for that bit of knowledge alone.
500$ for that box?? Thats too steep for my pocket
