I am looking to ditch the weak factory box and upgrade to something better. I have looked at Blue Top, Redhead and PSC and end of day, the OEM style box is still to small for the truck. I have researched and from what I can tell, the 05-07 box uses a different mounting bolt diameter, different hydro boost hose and a different pitman arm. The bolt issue and hose are easily remedied. What can be done in regards to the pitman arm issues? It appears the 05+ pitman arm has a larger hole for the tie rod. same taper angle, just larger. I am almost to the point of ordering both pitman arms and taking them to a machine shop to see what can be done. Has anyone else done this swap? I would like to use this gear box. 2768U: 2005-2007 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty Steering Gear HD - RedHead Steering Gears | Rebuild & Remanufacturer Thanks!
