My remanufactured power steering box in my Blazer has less effort than the original power steering box, so a steering box swap could be an option for you.
The paint on the body is worse than it looks in the pics, You could never match it. Too much fade. The steering gets easier everytime I drive it, and it really is not bad, she just has nothing but the denali to compare it too. If anything, the pump might be weak, you can here it whine. I'll check the fluid level again and if it's good, I'll probably swap the pumps I have already.

Here's a short list of what I'm searching for:
pass side fender
steering wheel with or without column
ignition switch bezel
wheel trim rings (very high priority item)
Time, time, time

Hmmm, junkyard is open, I know where I can get at least 2 of those items. Talk you you all later.
