James Duff power steering conversion kit???

[mkaenel]

It is funny...the more I work on my EB the more rigged/poorly installed parts and just plain incorrect work I find from the previous owners.

So at this point, I am just slowly replacing everything that is not a top shelf component.

Now I am almost ready to replace all the power steering equipment and I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the Duff kit???

I like it because it is complete and it seems straightforward. In addition, I also like dealing with the Duff employees.

Thanks for the advice and I look forward to the feedback.

Pretty much all the company's sell that same kit some for less $$ than others I'd shop around. you might want to check out West coast broncos they have the same kit for $300 less that that price so even if you have to pay taxes it will still save you $$

I looked on the west coast bronco website but couldn't find any information???

You might want to call them. I know when I ordered mine they had advertised in bronco driver magazine but the box I wanted wasnt on the web site. They do have this one there. I'm pretty sure its the 78/79 f150/BB box. http://www.westcoastbronco.com/prod...ge=/products/default.asp?CatLevel=2&Cat1_ID=2

BC sells the same kit as WC same price. If it is the duff box I am thinking of it is not as strong as the 4x4x2 box, what size tires do you want to run. If your going with smaller tires the duff kit will work just fine.

I am going to stick with my current 33 inch tires.

Cheapest route and you end up with a strong 4-turn box-the 4x4x2 swap.

One on eBay right now.

Welcome to the club. Nothing more interesting than discovering the POs POS custom wiring, upgrades, etc.

I think the box the Duff sells is a Toyota or Nissan box. Id go with the stock box or the 4x4/4x2 box IMHO.
