Technical Anyone running a 46/7 ford pickup steering box?

On the look out for an f-1 box for my T roadster project but today I ran across a 46/7 pickup that I could get the box out of. Would it be suitable to use or should I keep my eyes open for an f-1?

 

Can Anyone from the Sunday crowd chime in?

 

I have one in my model A coupe. It is cross steer. Car steers and handles well.

 

Is that a car box? I’m looking at a pickup steering box so no cross steer.

 

Pick ups were cross steer through 48, probably same box as pass car.

 

Well that makes sense!

 

Yes , my 47 steering gear is cross steer.

 

Yup the only difference is that some of them have a longer steering column shaft than the cars.

Guts are more or less the same 38- maybe 37? Until at least 48 I think possibly later in trucks

 

Don’t know if this helps you any , but this box is from a 60’s F100 , on my speedster .....

 

Thanks Ernie, I went junk hunting this weekend and I think there was a sixties truck out there.
