Power steering box help.

I know its a weird request, but I need a power steering box for a front mount tie rod setup. My plan is to mount it on the inside of the front frame rail and connect it to the stock shaft. A stock 68 box would be perfect if the steering arm was turned 180* and it was a powered unit. Thanks.
 
Those Borgeson units are just remanned Isuzu Trooper/Rodeo boxes. Not sure about the arm thing though :sm_NTA

If you're just looking for a front mount box, then perhaps a GM one would work. this is the one on my '65 El Camino...

What about a front mount rack? I used an '89 GT rack on my mustang with front steer spindles...

The steering box for the chevy is pretty common... I did change out the box to mid 80's Monte Carlo SS box to get a quicker turning ratio. Later I found out that mid 90s Jeep Cherokee steering boxes are easily restrofitted to chevelles since the bolt holes and pitman arm bolt up... The advantage to the Cherokee box is that is had larger turning radius along with the quicker ratio compared to the tradional 70's chevy box. If you do a google search for chevelle cherokee power steering you'll find a whole slew of info on the particular boxes. I'm pretty sure you can still buy "new" aftermarket steering boxes for chevelles / camaros / corvettes in this configuration if you wanted to avoid rebuilt units.
 
Thanks, I'll take a look. Just priced a reman box for an Isuzu and they wanted 280 plus a 150 core charge. Guess I'll go junkin, again.
