Hello,
I just contacted the Lares Corp for a manual steering gear box for a '70 F-100 2wd. The price quote they gave me is $155 w/exchange. I was just wondering if anyone has purchased anything from them? Are they a reputable company and is that a good price? Yeah, I know, someday I'll get power steering for her. But budget constraints won't let me risk getting a power steering setup and having to repair or replace one of those components. Anyways, thanks in advance for any replies. Joe Osborn (Ozzie)

I can't speak for that re-builder you mention but have you considered finding a decent used box. I would think there would be many decent manual boxes available in your area. Just a thought.

I've never heard anything about that company, but would like to contact them about a box for my ' 73 Econoline 300, that price they gave you sounds great, I've been quoted twice that for one for my van, could you please give me their address? THANKS
Rick,
Their website is larescorp.com. I found them through the links page for 61-79 pickups on this website. Hope they have what you're looking for also. Ozzie
I bought a box from Lares corp.last november for my 72 F250 for 225.00. The only other ones i had heard of were about 700.00. I haven't had any problems with it. It comes pre-packed with greese
and its centered. All you have to do is throw it in. I also thought it was a good idea to replace the steering shock at the same time.
So there you go.
