Update On my 1975 FJ40 its been a while! (2 Viewers)

I'm curious why you chose to use that design steering box? (Toyota IFS?)
In that location, a standard saginaw fits well and doesn't hang down so much. There also seems to be quite an angle on the TRE at the pitman, but maybe that's an illusion.

because it is much stronger, and the ratio is faster

Did you upgrade to chromo birfield and axles like rcv , look like you have a front disk brake conversion and probably early spindle and knuckle
