What options are there for steering boxes/pitman arms for high steer setups and front stretch?
I have a ford HP Dana 44 .A lot depends on how far you want to go...what axle you running?
The two easiest options feature forward facing pitmans
A Scout II box is one option...mounts outside the frame (requires drilling/sleeving):

Astro van box is the other...bolts up to existing holes:

The latter requires a minimum of 7-8" stretch to pull it off
If you're going with a 60, WFO makes a pair of high steer arms that run the tie rod to the rear if that's room you need to acquire
Does this move the pitman location?Look up Jeep CJ with Durango Steering Box Snow Plow option. Lot's of information on it. It's what I put in my Jeep. Snow plow option has stronger gear. I had a drop pitman but it put my steering link to low for a high knuckle Dana 44 . View attachment 76079View attachment 76078
I don't think so. You can see the drop vs straight in the picture I posted. Durango box bolted right up.Does this move the pitman location?
