I'm trying to locate a rebuilt steering box for my 4x4 Panel.Can anyone point me in the right direction?I called LMC and they no longer sell the box and Rock Auto lists the part as early 63 ps which is not what I have.I had heard that there was a ps conversion which can be done using parts from a newer Chev. I'd keep the manual gear if I can find one.I'm only considering ps conversion due to lack of availability of the original part. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have had two of mine rebuilt by a local steering rebuild shop and you can buy them all day long on eBay.

I an sure Tony at 4-5-6Chevy Trucks sells the Power Steering Conversion Kit or can point you in the right direction.

Bearings, bushings and seals are what get replaced in a rebuild. I was able to get all of these for my 62 k20 from rockauto, truck and car shop, etc. Rebuild was not too difficult. Used the shop manual, and there is lots on the Internet about it. Something to consider if you have no other choice and the internals of your box are not too bad. I was happy with the results. Spares and cores ate scarce. A lot of the rebuilt units on the Internet are actually rebuild services of your existing box.

would you happen to have a list of parts and numbers necessary for a 61K10 steering box rebuild? And maybe a supplier. I'd like to have a list so I can look for availability before I pull the box out.

Thanks,
Greg

I've looked all day long on E Bay. No luck. I would buy a rebuilt one to save on down time if i could find one.

Thanks,
Greg

There WERE several on eBay "all the time" a couple of years ago. They do look scarce now but try item: 200998517189.

I think going through yours might be less expensive though...

Good Luck!

The '60-'63 (early) & '63 (late)-'66 K10 & K20 manual steering gear boxes are different and the earlier boxes are more scarce & more expensive, if you can find one.

Contact Classic Parts of America. They have a fellow, in-house, that will rebuild your original 4x4 steering gear box.
