    Differences in SLAB steering boxes - advertised to be equivalent 68 Newport but not so

    Has anyone noticed some steering boxes do not fit? They look ok, holes sort of line up, but when you go to tighten them up to the frame, it gets pulled way out of position, and unusable without modification. The ones with a point on the south side, are correct. The "before" pic, in the car...
