Hey all,
I would like to do this conversion.
Does anyone have any pics of the unit installed with box and adapter?
Just curious what it will look like.

Btw, all I need it the box and adapter correct? existing pitman is okay?

Does anyone have any other suggestions to make this swap without using flaming river? I cant seem to find manual boxes anywhere. Plus, Ive heard they can be brutal with the ratio.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

depends on your current steering box , if it is original 69 then it has the small output sector , the flaming river is more than likely the large. If so you need to purchase a new pitman arm , pretty sure application to ask for is for a 73 B body , I put a large sector PS box in a 68 and pretty sure that is what I ordered.

All you need is the existing top half of the shaft and a box with a manual lower half shaft stick the two together and you are done.

No adapter required.
