Ive got a 95 GMC 1/2 ton with a Dana 60 that is moved quite a bit forward. The pitman arm is too far behind the axle and I am wondering if anyone knows of a box that would interchange that is reverse direction. Or if someone has a solution to reversing the stock gear box some way. Moving the box would be my last resort.

The 4x4 box on some mid 70's Dodge trucks rotates the opposite direction. This is on a 77' Dodge. Some have the pitman shaft pointed down and that is the wrong one.
When the wheel is turned right on this one the pitman arm rotates back. Flip it 90 and it would push your drag link the right direction with the arm pointed forward.
Right? or am I out of it? Long day.
