Steering box interchange

[Texas charger 73]

Can you use a steering box from a 72 charger in a 73 charger? Is only difference pitman arm size? Or does it matter because the suspension went iso in 73. I was asking because I found a killer deal on a 72 dodge charger borgenson steering box.

Pitman is the only difference between 72 and 73.

You didn't respond.. You just quoted.

The steering boxes of almost all Mopars are the same between A, B, C, F and R bodies are the same. It’s the pitman arms that vary along with the output shaft diameter.

I have a modern Jeep psb in my El Camino. It's an exact fit and tightened up the steering. Who knows what you can do until you try.

1 1/8" sector shafts were used from 1962 to 1972. 1 1/4" sector shafts were used from 1973 to at least 1979. This goes for A, B and E Bodies. I think C-Bodies always used the larger size shaft.

I know the sector shaft changes. That's why I was curious if this could be used with a 72 pitman arm in a 76 car

Sometimes you don't know what fits until you try it for yourself. I have stumbled upon a few things just by experimenting.
You think people like Columbus would have asked people in the village for advice on sailing across the ocean?

He was a bad ***, He went out and discovered it. YOU can too.

They used my large sector (1-1/4") power steering gear box until 1995 in their cars and vans.

Did you get an answer on this?

I'm selling my large sector power steering gear box for anyone interested. It was made in 1980 or 1990 and was recently rebuilt by Cardone. The gears are nice and tight with zero play.
