Need a power steering gear for a '67

Need a p/steering gear for a 67 old style slave cyl type steering. Does anyone know who rebuilds or sells these gears. Mine has WAY too much slack and i'm out of adjustment. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Need a power steering gear for a '67

Do you have the factory ram-assist/manual gear or an added on`68-up steering gear?I would check a hydraulics shop.Finding parts will be the trick,I`m guessing.

Re: Need a power steering gear for a '67

'67 and early '68 power steering trucks with the hydraulic ram style power steering use the same steering box as non-power steering trucks. These boxes are still available brand new, and many of the parts vendors offer them rebuilt. The control valve is available rebuilt through NAPA, and is also available new from many of the Corvette places (Corvettes used this style of power steering up until '82, believe it or not). The cylinders are around as well, both rebuilt and new.
