Steering gearbox upgrade.
 
Has anyone heard of PSC Motorsports and used one of there gearboxes?

I was looking into a Redhead or Agr box but found this .

For the money I'd just buy a rebuilt box from someone local and not a parts store. Get a jeep grand Cherokee box if you want the 12:1 ratio. I didn't see anything in the description that makes me think these boxes are rebuilt any better then anyone else's.

I'm on my 2nd reman gearbox within 1 1/2 years, I'm looking for a good box that will last awhile with these bigger than stock tires (33") I'm getting ready to replace the front end componants again... I do this once a year it seems , tie rods, ball joints , pitman and idler...

I think the biggest problem is there are no replacement hard parts made. Absurd beyond belief, but GM is good at that. You cannot repair the ABS module, nor can you order a replacement unit from GM or the modules manufacturer, on 1998 corvettes either. So if something is out of spec on the steering box, there is no way to fix it without pulling used parts from another box.
