Mystery PS box I found at Boeing Surplus

[bronko69er]

Ok so I found this poweresteeing box at boeing surplus.
It looks very similar to an EB box.
It even turns the right way.
It is about a 3.5-3.75 turn box and is assembled with metric hardware.
Any help ID'ing it?
Toyota? Nissan?

Well after a little searching, It doesn't appear to be a Toyota or Nissan.
Samurai maybe?

Does the pitman arm fit? It does look like a Bronco box kinda. It also appears to have been built by Red Head Steering based out of Seattle. Call them, they will ID it.

The pitman splines are a little smaller than the EB's....
I emailed redhead.

It looks like a Toyota IFS box. The lack of indexing splines is what makes me think that.

Looks like a Yota box to me.

So 86-88 Pickup's and 86-89 4Runners?
Only difference I can see is the casting web between the 2 mounting bolts.

Any others care to confirm that its a toyota box?
Where's Kanter.....

hmmm. I run an IFS 91 Toyota box. That looks to be an older one. Mines actually a little bigger. Im thinking late 80s Toyota or Samari. Sorry, I couldnt help more.

So readhead finally got back to me.
