Hey guys,

Quick question---Can we rebuild thee steering gears in our 1st gen blazers?

The front steering is all new (ish) and I have pin pointed the remoianing 'play' in the steering box itself -- about a 1/3 -1/4 turn of the wheel before it moves the pitman.....

SO-- My budget does not allow for a 300 rebuild, and I like to do things myself--

Can anyone point me in the direction of a place that would sell a rebuid kit? OR a good reman for less that 150?

I know this may be a long shot-- but I figure I would ask anyway

Thanks,

Jon
