Hi Forum!
I am going to replace my steering box this spring with a bench tested and lower mileage unit. I am wondering how members have pulled the steering box out? Was the motor in or out? I am thinking about suspending the engine with ratchet straps from a wood crossmember across the engine bay, undoing the strut mounts from the upper fender/engine bay, disconnecting the pitman arm and steering 'rod', and lowering the subframe with floor jack (sans wheels).
Any input is appreciated.
Cheers,
Bill
