What is it you're looking for ? Pitman arm is the most difficult part to locate, and depending on what part of the country you live in, it may not be anywhere where you live.
I did the reverse rotation steering gear swap on my '93 W250 this summer. It drives so much better now even though the original steering was pretty tight. I sent my box to Blue Top Steering Gears for a rebuild.

From what I have read this seems to be the only way to go aside from crossover steering.
I currently have the dodge connection brace, a redhead gear box and borgeson steering shaft. I have also had to repair my gear box bracket (did not brake but was cracked). I run stock tires and no lift, I am building an overlanding/expedition vehicle.
Can I use any part the borgeson shaft with the reverse steering set up?
Hey there gcam... I'd be interested in where you source your parts as I'm in AB as welll ... what part do you live in ?
Jacked the front end of my 92 W250 up yesterday and started looking over the front end stuff ... definitely have to address just about everything!!!
Did you notice any cracks in your steering box bracket or did you have to remove the gear box?

I got my from Borgenson as well, but buy the RR box FIRST as there are two different styles spline sizes and counts. 3/4 and 13/16 IIRC.
Then call them with the count and size and they will hook you up.

Most common is 13/16 Dia.
