We've had a steering box fail on the 1953 Yale (manual steering).
Belongs toa neighbor now, was mine for 20+ years, although I am
the 'consulting mechanic' for it still.....

Wondering if there is anyone on this forum that can remember back into the stone ages, and tell me who made that steering box, possibly Eaton?
Contemplating a conversion to a power steering box of modern vintage, and wondering about the Pittman arm tapered spline fitting some modern box......Dodge truck perhaps??

Any info or comment is appreciated.......!
