Hy timbuk if my memory serves me correctly, the proper steering box for your truck sits on top of the frame, and yes it does control an assist ram. That basic system was used up to 72 I think. I don't know of an integral box that will bolt in the stock location, but someone else might, good luck in your search, and let us know what you find please.
