can someone identify power steering bit?

Post by williamhamilton »

I grabbed this when I picked up a roof for my 40 - it came from a cruiser I was told.

The unattached box is from a 70 (got from Sadam a while back) anyone identify the other one?

Tires are like boobs, they always look big until you have played with them for a while, then you just want a bigger set.

My first car was a Valiant Regal - arm chair seats etc lovely machine with many fond memories...... smallest engine I owned (265ci) till I bought a 3.9L V8 Discovery hehe

I was thinking something truck like a Dyna with the size but have no idea other than it was fitted to a cruiser somehow before I got it :)

You'll note that the Pitman arm go's backwards, where'as most Cruiser Arms go forwards.

Other way around the 60 series ptiman faces the front of the truck and 70series faces the driver.

the brown (rusty) one is definately a 70 series one coz it came off my 70 series flatdeck and I swapped it for Willies forward/reverse PTO he had sitting in the shed collecting cobwebs :mrgreen:

dunno what the other box is, I've got a saginaw (chev) steering box on the front of my 40 series and it dosent look anything like that but there must be heaps of different types of saginaw steering boxes out there?
