CAUTION: This box does not fix steering wander!
Verified Buyer -
I need to return this gear box. It works great in the sense that my steering is effortless ... actually, it's too easy to steer... I could turn my 315/70 tires at a stand-still with one pinky, and I don't like it that easy. But the main problem is that this box does NOT fix the steering wander in my 2004 dodge ram 2500. After replacement (as well as new T-style steering links, tie rod ends, steering damper, pitman arm, steering shaft, as well as bushing and end link replacements for track and sway bars), I still have about 80-degrees of nothing in the middle of my steering. In other words, I have to turn my wheel about 40 degrees in any one direction before my tires begin moving. And this is after the dealership just completed an alignment. My old box had a similar issue, and this box doesn't fix it. I hate to drive my truck right now because it is unsafe to me and others, and requires all my attention so that I can stay in my lane driving. I have used this box for one day and I am going to try to return it... it is dangerous. (Note: I changed my power steering fluid and all hoses [which I cannot express how big of a pain that was] just as recommended in the instructions to this box.)
Piece of junk...
Firest one bought was busted on top. Took back had to wait for the second one. Got the second one and it is leaking on top at the seal. The bolts that come with it are smaller than the stock bolts. Overall a poor experience.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
Steering box made my truck drive like new again

Its only been a week, it does not leak yet, but I would buy it again. Good quality and price.
Great Price Bad Part

When getting the unit ready for installation the the in and out ports for power steering fluid the threads were stripped. There were aluminum filings in the bottom of the ports.
Cannot turn right
One month after install it won't turn right. Thank God because He was smiling on me that day. I had just returned from a trip with a fully loaded Dodge Dually. I parked and unloaded and whe I went to move the truck it wouldn't turn right. I had to force it to get it to turn. A new factory part is no longer available so I'm stuck with installing another remanufactured box.
