Im messing around with another dodge since I seem to have lots of '60's stuff laying around.

This go around I have a '65 shortbed 2wd. How hards one of these trucks to convert to crossover steering?

Also have access to a mid 70's chassis with power steering :grinpimp: How feasible would it be to just swap an earlier cab to the later chassis?

I did some searching and came up with about nothing

Are you wanting to put crossover steer on the 2wd axle?

No its gonna be 4wd - prolly use a chevy d44 for now and someday a front d60

Just find the box of your choice and mount it forward of the axle and add high steer. I have a 71 D100 that I've been considering making 4wd. I think it'd be WAY easier to mount a box on the stock frame than to put an older cab on a newer frame. The 4x4 swap will be a piece of cake too since the front is already leaf sprung.
