Odd Power Steering Setup

[stout22]

Does anyone know what this power steering is? What did it come out of?

Looks very similar to what is on my '61 T-bird..except the reservoir on my bird is on the fenderwell.

Have any more pictures of the box? Like the others noted, the pump looks like one out of an early '60s Ford. The box looks like one that was originally mounted inside the frame but is now outboard. I'm guessing either the F-Series 2WD box or a late '60s Lincoln box, depending on the length of the sector shaft (which I can't see in the photos).

I don't have any other pictures. I have seen this on two Broncos. Unfortunately both were in the deep weeds and I couldn't get a good look under the fender on either.

I may get a chance this weekend to talk to a guy that has one of the Broncos.

It well could be. The top cover on the box looked like a Ford cover to me and the tailhousing where the fittings are looks like a Ford as well.

I've got the same one on a 66 jeep wagoneer. Power steerig pump that is.
I believe the pump is a eaton pump common on early fords before they came out with there own pump. Steering box is Ford probably a 2wd version someone adapted to the frame by the looks of the spacers.

Maybe I'm just making this up but that rectangle on the top of the box sure looks like it says 'FoMoCo'?

My eyeballs saw the same thing.

Definitely FoMoCo..and looks to be identical from that view to the 2x4 truck box I'm running in my '69.

Hopefully I'll get to take some of the mystery out of this mod this weekend when I see one of the owners.
The two Broncos I have seen it on are in the same area (less than 30 miles apart).

my buddy bill had the same pump on his '64 falcon ranchero from the factory with a 260 and ram assist. still has all the parts for it in his shed.

Eaton pump. Early 60s Ford. Used on p/s cars (trucks?) till '66. Then the Thompson pumps used.
Box possible big Ford car.

The steering box is FoMoCo. I got one more picture. The big white thing in the foreground is the engine fan.
