STEERING BOX MASTER CYLINDER - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Can I take the steering box from a 1987 camaro and master cylinder from a 87 camaro and stick it in my 1970 gmc pickup?

I don't think so - the steering boxes on the pickups mount inside the frame rail and I believe the boxes for cars mount outside. As far as the master cylinder, I'm sure it could be made to work, but how well I could not say. On something as important as brakes, I would stay with stock or at least parts that are recommended as replacements for original equipment
