power steering gear

who make a good power steering gear? i have put 5 in in the last 2 years and out of the box all have been bad. one lasted a month and it was bliss and then started popping and binding.
the one that lasted a month had all new parts installed at the time to. not rebuild. pump lines and gear.

are the red head gears good?

Stock 88 XJ

Re: power steering gear

Ooooh man let me know how what you find out. What brand was your latest one? You can search for my huge thread on this. I went with a Blue Top and that company and those guys were totally awesome, but I had a few issues with tightness on my rebuilds. I eventually had them rebuild my old/original one, which I haven't installed yet. It def could have been an issue with just my jeep/system. I also was looking at PSC, but they are pretty pricey and I did see a couple ppl with issues there as well. Really curious if you find out any more info. Good luck.

Re: power steering gear

My PSC box is 6yrs old and still performing great. But I don't see a non-assist listed on there page anymore?
