I have one, haven't put it on yet I wanted to replace my steering box at the same time. It looks pretty good quality. I think its worth the money. Many people have these on there truck but from different companies, many people make these and there all basically the same and they all say that it makes a big difference

my boy and I bought the one on ebay perfect fit built solid, only one flaw in each in the powder coating worked with my front hitch and his 5 In lift. Couldn't be better for twice the price. we had not problem with the steering but was a preventative measure for the steering box strain. The bearing is guaranteed for life I believe.

I have one made by DSS for three yrs. now. Steering was ok but like Ed just said it was a preventive measure. If it helps the steering box last longer its worth it...

I have an AGR box. I'll do something different next time. Steering wheel moves from 11:30 to 12:30 without moving the pitman arm. Shipping is also long if you have to return it. Mine went back 4 times - twice were because the seal dumped the fluid & I lost brakes & steering. I'll try adjusting which voids warranty when I have time. There are several places that sell reman boxes. Sorry, I can't find the link now.
