Further to the Sprague steering box, here are some pictures of the Ross box.
Perhaps note the bolt in frame boxing part.

Re: Ross steering box for 26-7 T
Here is a photo of the 25 and earlier Ross box next to the 1926-1927 box like Les has.
The 26-27 box is shifted closer to the frame rail and the spark rod has to go above the casting for the gear setup when the earlier set up still has room for the spark rod to go between the gear box and the frame.

Thank you for the picture. It verifies what I was thinking. I have cast a couple of those as well as a couple of the early version as RHD (as I want one for my 13).
Additionally the early one is at a slightly different angle!!
