    Hi Everyone,
    I'm New To Hamb. I Have A Question. I Just Put A Straight Axle From A 1948 Ford F-1truck In My 1960 Lark. Does Anyone Have A Good Idea Of What Steering Box Or Rack I Could Use? Thanks. Happy New Year To All!:)

    Thinkin' out loud (and CASO Studebaker style, to boot!:rolleyes:
    I converted a Ccab '56 Stude p/u over to power steering for a guy and just used a GM steering box with an S-10 pitman arm.

    Hooked it to the stock Stude reach rod. Only had to drill two holes in the frame (used one stock hole to line the box up). Since Stude's were all kind of similar, I don't see why this wouldn't work with a Lark and the beam axle.
    More pic's of this swap and some other Stude wierdness are up at:

    Hope the info helps.
