Manual steering box

What are you guys recommendations on replacing steering box. Mine is feeling loose, not sure which direction to go.

Have you tried adjusting yours first? There is an adjustment nut on top. Might as well give that a shot before spending money. Unless you're just wanting something different.

I believe I have it maxed out now

This.

And also, is everything in your steering linkage/suspension new? Because if your tie rod ends, pitman, idler or steering coupler are worn it will feel the same as play in the steering box.

Copy that. Steering coupler could need to be rebuilt as well.

I had a 20:1 PST manual box on one of my cars before I sold it and was happy with it. Requires a little more muscle when parking and it's a little more difficult to back into spaces but I preferred it when out on the road. Not having the dead spot in the center and turning the wheel 50 revolutions to do a u turn was nice.

Every thing front suspension wise is new. Steering box and column only thing left
