 ANyone rebuild spe steering box or at least have parts for them. Mine has butt load of slop and would like to get rid of it. If can't find parts I will be replacing it this winter,but there is long list of parts.Most wanted and few needed that I would rather put money to work on if can.

Chris I might have the same problem ! Mine has some play in it too !

If you cant find parts to fix them the Strange unit should bolt in its place. 

Not much in there for parts, if the worm is worn you could probably build it up and machine it back but thats not a simple project unless you're a machinist.  The pin that rides in the groove could be repaired or replaced the same way. I'm not sure if the box is bushed at the pivot points or not but that would be the only other wear point.

Guess machining a new worm would be same work as re-machining  it.Yea joking there. I do machine work but not setup for all of that tool wise. While new one is pretty expensive,not so much compared to building new front end.LOL

sell it on a FB group, someone will pick it up for 200 for there cackle car project..... then your half way there to a new strange box.
