RedHead steering gear install on my 1969 F250 Camper Special!!!!  

Hey thanks for posting this video for those of us unfortunate enough to have a Bendix gearbox this video was just what we needed. I just replaced mine about a couple months ago but it wasn't a redhead unit the redheads are very expensive but I think they're worth every penny they have a reputation of quality I found mine online it wasn't eBay but it was something some kind of a suspension company had it and not even one day went by and it's already leaking in the back now I can't remember what kind of warranty it has on it . I think I should look into that though and find out find my old receipt and see what kind of warranty they had on it as far as the play is concerned it had just as much play as my stock gearbox had in my stock gearbox is 50 years old although my stock Bendix gearbox never leaked. The adjustment procedure on this gearbox is a mystery to a lot of people as well that's why I say if you need a new one I would go with redhead like you did, someone posted up the adjustment procedures on the fortification forums and I finally found it and I made photocopies of it it can be found in the 1968 Ford shop manual on how to adjust it there's three adjustments on that thing you can't just loosen the top lock nut and tighten the Allen's crew like a Ford gearbox if you do that you'll screw it all up.

I learned how to change the rag steering damper joints in the Chevy and Ford and dodge trucks around the farm growing up... and it is fairly easy to use I believe between the 5/8 spark plug socket,a 11/16 or the 13/16 spark plug socket and the id suggest a dead blow soft face hammer of some sort so it doesn't rebound back and causes harm to you or damage anything else you have to buy and replace on the truck... And that's a pretty sweet f250 bumpside camper special trim truck you have there Sir..

Badass!

How’s that box doin

How much with lookheed tank and conections? Could you answer me?

Hey, i got a f250 1967 modell camper special. You think this will fit? Did you have to shorten the steering column by 2" with this gearbox? Thanks.

I think so!

That fit the f100 model as well I’m assuming

In the middle of upgrading my steering system. 68 F250 ranger camper special. Just sent my bendix box to red head! Have a new column that is DD instead of splines at the end. Switching from rag joint to Universal joint that’s also an adapter from DD to splines (would love your opinion on that tbh). Because the shaft is so short at the end of the column, do u know how to go about that? With the new column being DD, the shaft can’t go inside? Not sure if I’m doing it right 😂😂

What size steering wheel is this a 15 inch?

Help me Can I put it on falcon 78 futura 6 cyl?

Any idea in where I can get a new pitman arm?

How did you align the pitman arm?

Is this an aftermarket power steering install? Will it fit in 66 f100
