I have another power steering gear 2267262 but the date is 4-14-70.Too new for my car.Anyone want to trade for a November- December 70 or Jan 71?
Just checking

Oh don't jump too quick. There is a large slowdown in 71 production vs. 70, so I have seen a lot of dates that are far off in 71.

Look if there is an assembly date first.

There is no number stamped in the housing.Here's some pics of the 70 gear.
Chris,is this gear in the time line of my Feb 3 Cuda

Sorry for the double above.Here's another pic.

my 71 cuda was built on the same day! 2/3/71

not to steal your thread here. But I too am looking at my date code on my steering box and have questions!My 71 cuda is the same date 2/3/71 and here is the box in my car. I cant figure out the date! Can someone else? I also read in Olas new cuda book, that approximately on February 1st the 340 cars are suppose to switch over to quick ratio steering. My 2/3/71 car don't have it. Wondering if the box was added down the road? I have no broadcast sheet to show weather it was a p/s car or not? Anyway here are a couple of pictures of my date stamp. anyone able to read this date code?

If I am reading correct....looks like this box was cast on 12/13/70 & assembled on 12/28/70.

Box off of my 68 Dart. Trying to figure out if it could be original to the car. SPD 412

G2267262
R1
1247

Code stamped into the pad...222G

If I'm looking at this right, was it cast on 1-24-67? Assembled on Feb 22nd?

Reving an old thread. Does a casting date of “150” = Jan 5 1970, the 15th day of 1970, or the 15th week of 1970?

JANUARY 5 1970

Thanks

Another revival on this. Unknown source for this one, so what date would this be with letters?

Everyone stumped?

YES

Just a guess here:

H = August
30 = 30th day
G = 1971

However, I just sold one dated August of 1971 and it had the traditional 8171 date on it.

Right, but the assembly date would not make sense either. I wonder if this is an early 60s version since the casting R2.

I thought that too but the assembly date starts with a D so that doesn't work
