I'm guessing your truck is currently 2wd since you gave absolutely no info and thats whats in your avatar.

If you are trying to use a 2wd steering box. Don't. Go get a 4wd box.

will the 83 4wd box work fine

No you need a 86-95 IFS 4WD steering box

Not trying to be ugly, but you need to do some more research and reading.
I would start with searching about installing SAS kits and particularly high steer. Numerous threads with pictures. Dropzone has a good thread on useful stuff bookmarked.

SFA box pushes front to back.
IFS box pushes side to side.
Not even remotely the same creatures.

You need an IFS style box to run high steer.
Frame mounting kit.
High steer.
Power steering obviously.

So what is #1 asking?

:wabbit2:

Dreidel

1 was asking if the sfa box would go to my frame and work right (no high steer)
2 was asking if my 2wd ifs box will work with high steer

No.
