I have a newly rebuilt HUMMVEE steering gear and I have decided to go Hydraulic and I ain't gonna use it so it is up for dibs. It;s a Saginaw gear and it bolts up just like any of the ones you are using now and it has the same turn radius and pitman arm clock position and uses the CJ7 style pitman arm. I am open for offers if anyone is interested.

the construction of the box is thicker, the pinion and worm gears are bigger and stronger and have less tendency to "slop" or loosen up and get squirrely. I have used these for years and never had one loosen or crack. Plus it turns easier because of less restriction inside the valve body.
