I've always been intrigued at the idea of mounting that Saginaw box on top of the frame rail ahead of the axle, rotated 90 degrees so the Pitman arm hangs down right beside the frame rail. There are 4 wide splines in the Pitman arm that prevent it being clocked incorrectly in the original application. On the race cars we built with lots of steering linkage alterations, we would take a 3-cornered file and eliminate those wide splines, allowing the Pitman arm to be installed in any position we wanted. If the Pitman runs close to the frame, a lot less monkey motion will be required to get the steering input to the spindle, right?
