Re: Power steering gearbox 2wd vs 4wd and difference??
The pitman shaft on a 2 wheel drice steering gear is both tapered and splined all of the way around, with spline seperation on them so that the pitman arm will only go on one way. The pitman shaft is also threaded on the end for a bolt that holds the pitman arm in place.
The 4 wheel drive steering gear has a pitman shaft that is not tapered. However it does have a short spline section, and a groove cut in it to alow for the bolt to pas thru tightening the pitman arm.
They are not interchangeable. WES
