steering gear rebuild

The steering gear box on my 85 4x4 is leaking and has the expected play of 103,000 mile truck. Where is a good place to have it rebuilt, I don't want to do it myself. Thanks!

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

I just received a quote from RedHead, $296.00 exchange plus shipping, I'm going to have them do the rebuild. Thanks!
