Steering boxes - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My power steering box on my truck has a striped shaft 73 model year I guess. So I tried to replace it with my other box off of a 79 4x4.

I found out the hose's ends are different, and I just can not swap it out.

If I just try new hose's will I find the mounting to the pump is different too?

If I need I new box I rather get one that has a bit more road feel to it such as having it rebuilt by Lee Manufacturing. Does anyone know the rough cost of a rebuild?

Also does anyone know of a re-builder closer to Chino hills?
