Re: power steering box suggestions

Probably the box that matches the axle you plan to run. A number of guys have run 80 something 4x4 boxes mounted in front of the axle on two wheel drive trucks with mixed results but I think they would probably work ok with a 4x4 axle. if you are going to use the ton and a half frame it should be beefy enough to handle just about anything. I've got the identical twin to the truck in your avatar sitting out in my sideyard waiting for something to happen and that has been one idea for it if someone around here decides to sell a 4x4 dualie real cheap when I have some extra cash and my wife isn't wrecking cars.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
