It's a direct bolt on. You can use the S10 pitman arm but the angle is a little different. I installed the camaro's pitman arm on my manual box.

Use an '85-90 s10 or some s15's box and install it with the camaro pitman arm. I actually had to hammer the frame rail slightly to get mine to fit.

<font face="arial" size="2" color="blue">I used the S10 box as well...had to shave off just a touch of the metal for it to sit against the frame right. Love it, glad I did it.

I know where I can pick up a second one at a local junk yard. Maybe I should pick it up and make a few bucks selling it to someone here.

 

How hard is it to turn the wheel at a stop, like when trying to parallel park? Just wondering.
