Has anyone found any reman steering boxes that aren't trash? I just replaced the reman box I had about a year ago because of excessive play, new one was fine for a few months and now the play is back. there is no play in any tie rod end, or ball joint, the pitman arm is tight, and the rag joints are fine. The factory box that I swapped at just over 300k had no play it just leaked from everywhere. Once I replace this box it'll be the 4th reman I've swapped in 100k. I've bought boxes made by both Cardone and BBB industries that major parts houses have slapped their name on. I thought about Red Head but I've heard their quality has suffered in recent years. I've got a 100k mile box out of a 4x2 truck that I'm tempted to install then get this reman warrantied out and stick it on the shelf if the non rebuilt box ever goes bad. Thoughts?
