The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Driveline '55 Chevy 3600 Steering Gear Box and Column Question

Hello I have a 1955 Chevy 3600 1st series 3/4 ton 4-speed floor shift truck. Do any of you know if the 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton steering gearbox and column are the same for these years? I'm looking for an original gearbox with steering column and want to know if they're compatible. Thank you for your expertise!

These pages are from the steering box overhaul manual .

IMO.......a replacement steering gearbox must come from a 1954 to 1955 1st. series .

Hi George, thanks for that valuable piece of information. I guess I'll give the 1954 1/2 ton gearbox I found a shot. I'll let you know how it turns out thank you.

I have a GM printed overhaul manual for the steering box.

I copied it on my scanner page by page .

I made it into a very readable pdf.file .

If you'd like a copy give me your email address

and I'll email you a copy .
