Which power steering box to buy

1966 panel, I need to change my power steering box, my truck was converted years ago and the steering wheel has about 2 inches of play in it.

Which box supplier has the best box and which ones should I be considering?

New or rebuilt, close ratio or normal ratio, Borgeson, Redhead, other?

My truck is an extended distance cruiser, not a race truck or a track truck.

any advice will be helpful. BH

Have you tried tightening up your existing unit?
