The steering gear in my 64 is leaking from steering shaft side and I need to rebuild it. I have used steering gear from 70`s Monte Carlo available. Is there any reason why not to use that temporarily in 64 during the rebuild work? I know it is not identical but could fit temporarily.

I do not know. I posted a comment yesterday by forum member Dan McNarry with links to an informative article on steering boxes.  See:

I hope this helps you find a good resolution.

Thank you Chris!

Based on that article it will fit.

Lower Front End Ball Joints

Posted by Logan Robb on May 11, 2023 at 9:04am 7 Comments

Good Morning all! 



I took the 64 into the shop to have some adjustments completed and in the process decided to have the lower ball joints replaced as was recommended the last time I had it in. I ordered the parts and came into the shop. They quoted me nearly $500 to replace those lower ball joints requiring nearly 4hrs of labor.

1964 power steering sector rebuild

Posted by CHRIS CARLSON on March 20, 2023 at 11:32pm 3 Comments

 I'm having my steering sector rebuilt, and considering changing it from 20-1 ratio 4.2 turns lock to lock to 3.5 turns lock to lock @ 16-1 ratio, If i change from a 3 1/4" box to a 3" box i could have a 14-1 Ratio steering response would be faster, shorter distance to turn the wheel to get a response,   has anyone done this? and how do you like it? thank you
