Hi all
I have a 65 b body with PS . Guy near me has a firm feel box for sale that he had in a 73 E body . Other than changing the pitman arm , will this fit my car ?

Make sure you get your pitman arm situation figured out first. Later PS boxes had a larger diameter shaft and early pitman arms do not fit.This can be a challenge with an early b-body. If it's the smaller shaft you're good.

running up my post count some more .

If it's the smaller shaft you're good. Any advice on what pitman might work? If the new box has a small spline, same as you have now you're good. Use it. If it's the bigger spline then the problems begin. The pitman arm and idler arm need to match (same length and pitch) and your 65 uses a stud mount idler so later through bolt idler arms will not work. So your best bet is to make sure the splines match. Sorry I can't be of more help.
