'68-'70 steering box in '65-'66

[Loup-garou]

Has anyone out there done this parts swap? I mainly need to know if there are any problems in connecting a '68 Pitman Arm to the '65 V8 center link, and whether the Idler Arm has to be changed. The '68 steering box has a larger diameter sector shaft than the '65, so I can't use the original Pitman Arm with the new box.

Just keeping this one bumped to the top...

I put a 65 steering box with pittman arm that came with it in a 67 Mustang and attached it right to the center link and had no problems. Seems like it ought to work in your case.
