Glad yours was easy.. I got mine out and the new one in. Put the pitman arm on and went to bleed the system and it turns the wrong way!!! When I turn left the wheels go right. The first time I saw it, I was hilarious.. now I'm just pissed! Is there a difference between the F250 and F350 steering gear having a reverse rotation? I have the D60 (F350 front end) in my F250. The new box is a F250 box I got from AZ. I had taken the old one in so they could match it... The boxes look similar and all the holes match up but this backwards rotation is throwin me.

Highly frustrated! Pulled the pitman and reinstalled making sure it wasnt a DFO error and still the same problem! HELP! I need the truck together by Friday. I have new lines coming in tomorrow and would like to get it ready for the new linese or order new parts if I have to.
