Came across this chart While trying to sort out the universal joints I need to order for my steering column install. Hope it helps others in need. Can someone confirm that the column to box is 3/4" by 36 spine on the stock power steering box as the chart states?

Stock power steering box is 13/16 x 36 spline. The 4x4x2, stock manual box, and the F100 box that installs on the inside of the frame rail are all 3/4 x 36 spline. For some reason the OEM power steering box is larger than the other boxes.

We can confirm that FR for which we are a dealer has not done all their homework. Stock P/S early Bronco is as Justin said 13/16-36 at the box. (73-77) Most of the other "FORD" stuff is 3/4-36 including the manual boxes and the 4x4x2. All of your stock EB upper shafts are 3/4-36 also. Here's an idea of how many different joints we use to make shafts for Broncos. There's about 20 joints and many combinations. It's not really that complicated just takes good information to get the job done.

Is that Matt's rear end?;);D
Looking a little round in the middle. You should unchain him once in awhile and let him walk around.;D

Thanks everyone, I ordered a new column that has a 1"DD and a collapsible shaft that is 1" DD on one end and 3/4" DD on the other so I ordered a 1" to 1" DD universal and a 3/4" DD to a 13/16 - 36 spline universal.
