Re: Steering shaft
BTW, I'm getting a rebuilt steering gear box from AGR. Their shop is south of Ft. Worth, about 45 miles away from me. I didn't get the quick ratio, but did get the modern valving for better feel. They are also installing one of their high pressure pumps in my old reservoir can, as well as media blasting and powder coating the can.
I used one of their boxes a few years ago in a friend's truck, and was very impressed with it. I mean it literally felt more like my Mustang GT's steering than an OE truck box. I'm also impressed with their operation and customer support. Prices are not much higher than boxes rebuilt in China by A1 Cardone and others. In fact, their basic stock rebuild uses better parts and actually costs less!
On my way to Summit Racing to pick up a rag joint coupler.
