Steering Gear Box

Hi, everyone. I am a little confused and hope that you will be able to help.
The steering box on my 01 f350 is leaking and is in need of replacement. I have looked at the usual parts stores and have not been able to figure out wich gear box to buy. The price range has me wondering about the quality of these parts.
Below is a list of stores, brand names and prices. Which one would you use on your truck and why.
Autozone: Atsco - 171.99 Agr - 298.99(special order)
Advance: Cardone - 294.44 Lares - 198.88
Napa: Name?? - 244.00

Thanks for the help

Napa is usually higher quality then the other two. I know that O'reilly has really good parts as well, but they're harder to find. Moog makes good suspension parts, and I know they have tie rod ends, but I don't know about complete steering boxes.

When I was rebuilding my motor my machinist nearly beat me when he heard me talking about advance. I told him none of their parts were going in my motor and he backed down. Thank the lord.
