It seems that after almost 70 years, the steering box seems to have enough wear that a replacement is needed in a family owned 1950 2R5.
Question is - will the steering box/shaft from a ‘55 1/2 ton fit in a 1950 2R5? I know there were three different boxes used from 49-53, but will a box from two years later work? There are two ‘55 parts trucks that can be picked over and if they are in need of a refreshing, they can be sent off keeping the truck intact until the install can take place.
Thanks ahead.
