just wanted to update my steering box project. Been out of town for 4 weeks so today I just installed the new adapters from CPP part # 500IOA. I used Teflon tape on the threads going into the box. Not sure needed but I am old school. As everyone knows always curve balls when working on anything that has wheels. The 1 inch tall adapters raised my one hose to where it interfered with my custom made air cleaner for my LS1 so with it being 106 degrees in Houston today I decided to stop. Anyways should be able to finish next time I work on it. Still need to decide what steering shaft I am going to install. Have a jeep and a original with a new rag joint to decide from. The adapters worked fine . Will update when complete with road test results included.
