Re: [Amc-list] Ambassador for sale



Other then Jeeps/Eagles I've never seen a different Pitman arm on an AMC product. The only difference is P/S to non P/S.
  I have a 73 Box on my 69 no difference in arms at all.
I've got a 92 Grand Cherokee box that will be going into the Conv.
You know now that I think of it I think even the 65 Ambo uses a different moutning pattern then the Americans as IIRC the lug that is missing on the Jeep bos is needed on the American, but again IIRC it is not needed on the 65 Conv as when I saw that I deicded that's were I'd put the Jeep box after I bought it cheap off eBay.
  I orignally though I was buying a 2.5 turn 12.7 ratio Jeep box, but I got a 3 1/4 turn box instead. It should still have better valving then the 65 box. I have a saginaw P/s pump setup of a vigilante Jeep to use with it so I can adjust pressure easily too is needed.
  The more I think about all the cool stuff I've gathered for this conv, the more I realize I need to get back to work on it! Even if it is just to use up all this "cool" stuff!!!

OOPS, Rambling again, sorry
