GU steering box in a GQ

**88swb** · 4th August 2016, 08:18 PM

Hi,
I got a 88 swb patrol with GQ front diff. I want to replace the old steering box with a 2006 GU steering box. Is there anywhere that sells a adjustable drag link with a GQ tie rod at one end and a GU at the Pitman arm end?

Cheers

Most don't change the pit arm, they change the rod end to suit the gu box and gq diff setup..
As the tapers between the 2 models were different
