This document is an exploded-view illustration (credited 'Copyright FoMoCo') showing a steering gear box assembly and its mounting hardware, uploaded to a 1974 Ford Bronco gallery under the filename 'pwrsteeringbx.jpg'. The drawing depicts the steering box unit with its top cover and adjuster hardware, the sector shaft extending downward through the housing, and the pitman arm attached at the bottom with a lock washer, flat washer, and castellated-style retaining nut. Two long mounting bolts with lock washers are shown positioned to pass through the frame rail (drawn as an open rectangular box section) into the steering gear housing, along with corresponding hex nuts. Dashed alignment lines indicate how the fasteners and components assemble. There are no part numbers, torque specifications, callout numbers, or legend text visible on this scan — it is purely a pictorial assembly reference. A reader can learn the general arrangement and order of assembly of the steering gear to the frame and the pitman arm to the sector shaft, useful when removing or reinstalling the steering box on an early Ford Bronco or similar Ford vehicle, but must consult other documentation for fastener sizes, torque values, and part numbers.
