Red Head steering box

Lots of questions today. I want to replace my 15 year old AutoZone steering box and want to go with a Red Head box. Anyone know a source for best pricing, or is it best to deal directly with Red Head? I hear their customer service is terrific. Also what kind of prices have you paid for yours, for a Bronco?
Thanks

I don't believe they have any vendors. Best bet for a good price is to wait for a group buy on here.

I haven't yet ordered one for the bronco, but I did put one in my '77. Though I haven't driven it yet.

Thanks. A little less than I expected. I'll give 'em a call.

I have one and have been very pleased. I also did a tie rod flip at the same time which further improved the steering. a Sag pump swap was another added bonus if you can score one. I found mine from the same year van.

Redhead box is well worth the money. With a Saginaw pump the steering is tight and almost effortless.
