for the best steering box you will get. I have one in my 76 and just ordered one yesterday for my 79. About $225.00 plus core and shipping. They modify the output shaft so it rides on a bearing to prevent the slop we get in well used boxes. I dont think my 76 steered this good when it was new.

Yes the box has been compromised,but try to reset the adjustment,it may save your box but I must agree with the former post.This is the type of adjustment ment for those who do know the system. Please be very carfull and use good judgement when testing( dont get out on the freeway.JNT
