power steering in a 1955 GMC truck

which is better to use power gear box or power rack & pinion form NO LIMITS. I still have the straight axle in the truck. I will be replacing the 288 v8 hydromatic with a LT1 engine and 4l60E.  

If it were me and I was dropping an LT1 with a 4L60E tranny in, I would loose the straight axle and go to an IFS. Of course this still leaves you to choose rack or ball. We ran an article comparing rack & pinion versus a steering box in the November   '06 issue of Custom Classic Trucks... Don't tell me you're not a subscriber, lol.  

I would rather keep the straight axle due to budget. which is better toyota power steering are no limits rack and pinion kit for straight axle.  

I've never used No-Limits R&P setup, on one of my trucks. Bob Ryder my friend over at Truckin' did a story on one that ran in CCT and thought thet were pretty trick. I know first hand the Toyota setup has been used for the last 20 or so years and they work great. I don't how they compare price wise, but I did a story in CCT comparing both. Google Custom Classic Trucks Don't Get A Bum Steer by John Gilbert, and you'll find the story archived on our web. If you're still not sure — take the Toyota.  

Don't Get A Bum Steer

Big Daddy,

Yea, sorry about that, I should of made it more clear. I meant to click on the link, that link should take you to the story that John was talking about.

 

I order the rack & pinion form No Limits. I will let ya'll know how it work out after I install it.  

To let everyone know that the rack & pinion from NO Limits works great and very easy to install.
