Fitment Notes

If the vehicle has manual steering, a replacement power steering pitman arm will be needed (PN: 092301DS for 1967–1969 Camaro & 1968–1972 Nova).
A 3/4" x 30-spline rag joint is required (PN: 090205DS). For 1978–81 Camaro/Firebird, a stock replacement 2-3/4" OD rag joint is needed. Detroit Speed hose kit (PN: 091202DS) can be used with this steering box.
