    Sounds like he was trying to help CPP sale some parts. He only said CPP or CPP 500 18 times . The information about all of parts that you have get was great 👍

    Cool details you have with the power steering box and fittings. It comes together easier when you have all the fittings you need a head of time which is nice to see.

    I did a cpp 500 steering box on my 70 c10 too! Did mine a little different. I opted for a hydraulic brake setup. Plumbed it to the stock 5.3 steering pump with AN fittings and it works great.

    The 1967 C10 has no indention on the frame for the steering gear. The only gearbox that would work is on that is flat on the mount side. Mine comes OEM with longer bolts and heavy steel tube stand offs like cut pipes. I use the Saginaw 800 series for the larger diameter piston and a heavier torsion bar and cut the pipe stand off's. The box sits at a slight angle to the factory manual box but I am familiar with frame breakage on Dodge Vans as I fixed 6 or 7 in a shop. We cut 5/16" plate from a template, to place inside the split frame. Plug welding help beef up the mounting with 1" welds in 5 locations. For those who's never seen one, it is like a weld box frame, simply split into a "Y" at each front corner.
    On the 1967, I had to move one hold only rearward and upward about 1/4" to allow bolts to screw in by hand. The front two bolts had 3/8" of the end cut off and tapered and all were grade 8. So, technically the 1967 C10 needing a P/S box installed has a flat frame with holes in the frame located further forward than others. Perhaps that's why 1967 is not listed in catalogs and videos include 1967 in the "Title" but are different. C10 PU, Panel and even the Suburban all are the same. 1966 and older with 1968 and newer are different. I really don't like the ones that have you drill out the threads on the bottom front hole to bolt a bracket to it. To me, this destroys the core in the future. I have rebuild a dozen of gear boxes and re-sealed 30 others, but they were all Saginaw 605, 800 series but have never seen a 500 with solid fronts. I guess the piston comes out the back thru the input shaft & control head. I am not sure where they were used on what vehicle. Vega? Monza? Pinto? Dodge Dart?

      You can also simply use a spacer on the '67 frame to accept a traditional ps gear box.

    • @UNITEDBYTRUCKS
      @UNITEDBYTRUCKS  5 років тому +1

      No, they only work with the CPP 500 box, but that’s why it’s a custom look for factory style steering - meaning you don’t have to run a rack and pinion to get a custom look. The fittings on the pump side will
      work for all LS pumps.
