IFS steering box issue

So im finally getting sick and tired of my powersteering not working.

(however, i have noticed a little extra definition in the fore-arms however... hoooo ahhh... or maybe that was from something else...... lol jp *mind in the gutter*)

My steering gearbox is fubared and needs to be refurbished. I was wondering if anyone knows where i could ship it off to to have it completely run through.

(the steering gear craps out all the fluid, i would love to reman. it myself but was told that a press is required.... booooo on that!)

Luckily i have an extra one in my garage so i wont be immobile. Also is there anything i can do to prevent this from happening again? Im only running 31x10.50s! I figured it crapped out due to wheeling and moving more rubber than it was originally engineered to.

Ive searched quite a bit here on YT as well as google for power steering issues to no avail.

( i r the search n00bz0r )

If anyone would be kind enough to link me up with a thread/organization with more info, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you much!!
-Matt
(PS, whoever transfered my "stolen" thread to wotr, THANK YOU. that was freaking awesome. Browsing around and saw my thread there and was baffled. )

Marlin Crawler sells rebuilt IFS boxes for 299. I'm sure it would cost less to get one rebuilt, and you could send him a email to see if they do they're own rebuilds or outsource it and go from there......


Forgot, Check with Wabbit on here, he sells PS boxes as well! *sheepish grin*
