F-41 12:1 close ratio steering box?

[84cutspreme]

Does anyone know what the # of turns lock to lock of steering wheel (stock wheel)??

 

[cdg1984]

I believe its somewhere around 2 1/4 to 2 1/2

Do you know what the stock steering box ratio is?

 

[cdg1984]

I just went out and turned mine, it was a little over 3.

 

[84cutspreme]

What style stock steering wheel? or is it aftermarket?

lol, I found out the answer. Hoped on Ac Delco they make a replacement unit for both. Stock unit says 2-2 1/2 turns and f41 is 3-3 1/2. Thank you all for helping and here is info in case anyone else wants to know.

Shouldn't it be the other way around? F-41 should be the "quick" ratio box, less work to turn more... I would think

Its the other way around. My stock 80 malibu box was 3.5 turns lock to lock. I replaced it with a monte carlo ss quick steer ratio box from autozone and that is 2.5 turns lock to lock.

lol, yup you're right...I'm dyslexic sorry

the turbo regals had a quick ratio box as well 2 1/2 lock to lock
