Andydodge Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 I know that 1940 Dodge & Plymouth steering boxes appear to be the same, not sure if they are interchangeable with the Chryslers, tho I wouldn't be surprised...I've never heard of a mopar steering box from this era with a crack?...........any idea how this happened & where is the crack?.........andyd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joecoozie Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 I sent you an email and/or PM but did not get a response. I have a steering box from a 41 Plymouth. I don't know if it is the same or not. Maybe someone here will let us know. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gatz-271 Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 I have the steering box, steering shaft w/nut & the isolator thing that is bolted to the pitman arm from a 40 Royal. It's in real good shape. I can send pix & the weight if you'd like. PM me for direct email address. gatz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Reddie Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 You can also try these guys. They have a lot of Mopar stuff. John R http://mooresautosalvage.com/parts.asp?division=2&make=Chrysler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
