Power Steering Gear

Good Morning,

In order for my '76 F350 to get a sticker, my mechanic told me it's going to need a new steering gear. The one on the truck is leaking. Has anyone had any experience with either a remanufactured unit versus a new one? Looking at Rock Auto and attempting to compare:

Versus
https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...125740&jsn=912 Brand New Unit

I also saw that they also offer a Quick Ratio gear- has anyone had any experience with those?

Thanks for the help!

I really like my Red Head, much better than stock. I would not recommend a quick ratio for a heavy truck
