I may have to replace the power steering unit in my 66 Coronet 440. What years of B bodies used the same unit ?

IIRC all 62-74 boxes were basically the same and will fit. I’ll let someone else chime in if I’m incorrect.
Just make sure the pitman arm is the correct size and the spline's match.

If it’s a nice car you might want to consider upgrading to a Borgeson unit.
I've heard about these but don't know much about them.

I recently put a new Lares 11033 box plus their 12112 pump and 176 pressure line adaptor on my 67 wagon. Works great. If you have oe exhaust, it's a direct bolt in. If you have headers like me, Hedman's on a 440, you have to thump some tubes for it to fit. #3 and #5 needed a little persuasion. Otherwise straightforward. If you have a similar engine/exhaust combo, I can give you some install tips. Also you can go with the Borgeson box, get it from BAC[ one of our sponsors]. Many people use them too and are happy with them. If you decide to go rebuilt oe, stay clear of using parts store rebuilds unless you're a glutton for punishment. Steer and Gear, Firm Feel, Redhead and Lares all do excellent rebuilds on oe boxes.

If you are interested, call Peter at Bergman Auto. He will hook you up with a Borgeson unit and the right couplings to direct fit to your make and model. He is one of our sponsors.

And Peter will hook you up with ALL the needed parts for the install. There's more to it than just the box.
