Need a new power stearing box,who's got the best?

[nicoles]

I'm working on a 66 Barracuda. So far I've rebuilt the front end ,poly graphite bushings,every thing changed ,a good front alinement,put in a flaming river coulper.and I'm still not happy with the play in the front end.Have heard about a couple of after market stearing box's but not sure what on is the best. I hear that Firm Feel II leaks a lot.What other ones are there for us to use .any imput would be of great help my daughter has to be driving this to school in a few weeks. Cole's 66 dad. Don

I have a firm feel stage 2 with 500 miles and no leak. Nice upgrade so far.

There is a member here that had one that leaked and had a hard time getting satisfaction from Firm Feel. This is the only incidence of leaking I have heard of, everyone else that has made a comment about their boxes has made positive comments.

FWIW, I just used a stock rebuilt box from the local parts store and had the alignment shop crank in as much caster as they could. This has given me light but very acceptable steering feel.

I would check out steer and gear also. I have heard they do good work.

I have a steer and gear stg1 and really like it. The return on the core is postage paid by them, I might add, which is kinda nice!
