Here is build sheet if you guys have any final recommendations or suggestions. Since my Cunningham shaft arrived I’m going to order the rest of these items and get it started. Because the steering box is pricey before the core refund, Hopefully by the beginning of July I will have everything at my doorstep.

I texted the seller and he actually offered me a 10% discount on it, so I’m biting on that.

My rock auto cart covers a Haynes manual I want (I have Alldata as well, both definitely will help this build), a dash cover, Dex 3 for the power steering, and the remaining suspension components I need: Idler arm bracket, 2 sets of lower and upper control arm bushings. Which im sure the bushings will be super easy and not a huge pain in my ***.

Already shipped is my steering shaft. I’m leaving this here for people who’d like to order one themselves, Cunningham has their own page on this website as well. This is for 95-00 trucks, if you have a 88-94, their website has a different option with u-joints on either side. Thats the one you’ll need.

This is the part number and website for the red-top steering box. They’re very good and made in the USA. Cunningham is also produced in the USA that’s how you know both of those are good products.
Some info for anyone wanting to buy one of these:
-they got exceptional quality and you know it’s a good box every time unlike AutoZone.
- they have a 2.5 turn radius box available as well. I have no experience with them but from what I could gather they aren’t noticeably different. If you want a quick ratio racing box, I would suggest checking out summit don’t waste your money on this one.
- the price is $316, BUT there is a $150 core charge, $35 charge for a premade shipping label to get your old one to them, and shipping came out to $39. So expect to have about $550 to $575 to dish out before your refund. Make sure to either order this last, or to get that old box out when the package arrives if you’re still waiting for stuff. My buddy let it sit around, waiting for other parts, and he only got half his core charge back.
Once I have all this installed I’ll be tuning up the engine and then working on getting a drop kit.
