    No they just have different pitman arms on the 80's bdoy style variety. However, S10's and 90's body style chevies had the PS box mounted inside the frame rail and are the mirror image of the outside boxes. This would probably be your best bet.

    He needs something that came from the factory mounted outside the driver's frame rail. That way, when it's mounted on the passenger side, it will be inside the frame rail.

    Ok I haven't updated my thread in a LONG time so I thought I would go ahead and do that...

    Mods I have installed:
    -33" ProComp Muds
    -15x10 White "Wagon Wheels"
    -4" HFS Suspension Lift
    -OME Anti-Inversion Shackles

    Currently she is being worked at up in Bonham, Texas by the best Cruiser mechanic I have ever met. Stuff being installed:
    -ARB F&R Lockers
    -Metaltech full cage
    -Power steering
    -Front Disc Brake Conversion
    -Complete Exhaust overhaul
    -Clutch Master and Slave Cylinder
    -General Maintenance (Overhaul)

    That will be done in the next month or two, looking to have it done by ICBM (Lone Star Land Cruiser's "I cruised barnwell mountain") and then after that looking to replace the bench seat with buckets and then looking for a softtop for it and then it will be done for a while.
