RedHead Steering Gear (32 Spline) | 2764 | 1997-2000 Ford F250-F550 / Vans

Steering Gear Fits Ford F-250, F-350 And some 2wd Excursion’s With 32 Spline Sectors. This Gear Has The 4 Bolt Top Cover And 32 Spline sector. This gearbox allows you to retain the factory steering shaft, as well as the stock pitman arm. This is a major advantage especially those with lifted trucks with dropped pitman arms, you will not have to change your pitman arm.

Special Notes: Be sure to do a spline peak count of your output or sector shaft, which indirectly connects to the tires, you should have a total of 32 splines. (Please view the third picture on the left, you will see you have 8 spline peaks between each master spline, and there is 4 master splines, so 8 times 4 = 32 splines). If you have a 36 spline sector shaft, please use part 2764BS.

Features:

• 12 Month Warranty
• Built in the USA
• Housings are machined out and replaced with needle bearings
• Shafts are flame sprayed or replaced as needed
• New control valves installed on some applications
• Worm and piston assembly are custom fit with special ordered, precise oversized ball bearings
• Sector shafts are installed on a lathe to confirm they are straight and true
• Sealing surface is polished to avoid any leaks

Note:
There is a mid-model year split in 2000, please determine whether you have the early or later model steering box prior to ordering by counting the splines on the shaft. The early models have 32 splines, while the late have a 36 spline. Thus, the Red-Head #2764 will feature 32 splines, where the #2764NBS will have 36.
