I'll jump in here and HIGHLY recommend a steering gearbox from AGR Performance. A few years ago I installed one on a 1966 C10 that I converted to 69-up steering. I can't even begin to describe how good it felt compared to stock gears in 69, 81, and 82 trucks I've owned. It is absolutely precise and has a firm on-center feel, with no wondering left-to-right until you turn the wheel.
Highest praise I can give the AGR box is it feels similar to my 2016 Mustang GT's steering. In other words it tracks straight as an arrow and responds immediately to input (assuming your steering and suspension components are in good shape).
AGR is located in Fort Worth, TX, but you can buy from Summit Racing.
