thats where mine was leaking from(only drops when you turn the steering wheel). replace it. a rebuild is tough and a seal kit only works if the internals are still good. the new one i got from local autoparts place(oreillys) has a lifetime warranty. $169.99 + $200core

No kidding? Lifetime, that is great I didn't know they did that. Just any oreilly's you think?

i don't know. oreilly's was the cheapest. they are REMANUFACTURED but have a lifetime warranty. it is a CARDONE box i believe. the hardest part of that gearbox swap was getting the pitman arm off the old box! :banghead:

That's cool, good deal for sure if it has a lifetime guarantee!! You got that right that thing is on there tight!

I have a Cardone box and am negotiating for another one. I'm considering getting another Cardone under warranty. (<15,000 mi & never worked right). My intent is to try Redhead's box as I like what the owner says about his builds. I'll sell the new Cardone. The failed AGR box that's on the shop floor will be a Redhead core.
