Last week i installed a reman steering gearbox from Napa. Put the new box on and installed a steering brace with it. Now I am having a issue truck feels real sloppy when Turing right but when Turing left everything feels tight and steering wheel will return to center when I let go but not when turning right.

Not sure what issues your having but you might try to eliminate things.

 

Take steering brace off does it go away?

 

Did you purge air from the system? 

 

Jack up truck take power steering cap off and steer stop to stop hold it against lock on eat side for a few seconds. I'm not sure if that's the correct way but it did work to purge the air from my steering. 

 

Good luck

I'm thinking the steering brace won't have anything to do with the problem your having.... I think it's like Evan says, that you should purge the air out of the fluid lines. Watch the level and add as needed.
