Maybe you should start by telling us what the site that tells you what you think you need says you need Then we can fill in the blanks.

I know you are trying to save $$$ but the Flaming River new needle bearing steering boxes are well worth the money. I have never had a rebuilt box as tight as the Flaming river box.

'71s used a saginaw box similiar to the older corvettes with the PS hosed running directly to the box. A much better design than the external hydraulic cylinder boost.
