looking for sources for heavy duty chevy style power steering boxes that mount on the inner side of the frame rail.

going into a scout 80.

thinking about running a YJ box, but would like to do a fullsize box if there are any that mount inside the rails, thanks

the chevy s10 and astrovan boxes mount inside the frame. im running a astro van box on a s10 blazer with a solid axle up front and 33s and was driving it today, turning the wheel around with one finger

run any steering box just turn the pit man arm around
my cousin did this on a jeep wrangler that he put a hp44 in
he used a box off a f-150

ok i am wrong
u cant turn the pit arm
but you can use a ford f-150 2 wheel drive box
they mount on the inside of the frame rail
the only down side is the pit arm faces forward
