    Hey guys, not a new driver, but a news o/o. I bought a 98 T800 and I have a bad steering box. I can't make out the lettering on the box to figure out what box I should replace with. Does anyone happen to know the type of gear boxes they put on KW in 98?

    If there is a grease fitting at the pitman arm seal it is a ross. If not Shepard. But call kw with last 6 of Vin and they can tell you.
