You can use either a Dodge or GM Saginaw Reverse Rotation box, mounted in the same spot/holes that the original PW box fit in.
It must be reverse rotation. Turn the Steering wheel/input shaft Clock Wise and the output shaft must turn Counter Clockwise.
Helitool made a mount for the Saginaw Box. I dont know if Ray has any left. If not, its not to hard to fab one. Both the GM and Dodge Saginaw boxs mount in exactly the same fashion.
If you want ot use a Stock PW Pitman arm you will need the Dodge Box. The GM Box has a different taper on the output shaft. However, there are pitman arms that can be adapted GM/PW.
Check with Tom at Snake River 4x4. I bought boxes from him in the past. The stock Saginal mount will not work in the PW location.
