power steering box rebuild?

my 87 pickups power steering box is leaking really bad. granted it has been leeking since i got the truck in 07' but it gotten worse over the years. newly rebuilt ones seem to be in the $300-350 range. does anyone know if there is a rebuild kit i can buy with new seals and maybe new barings? thanks!

I get a lot of my parts from RockAuto.com. They have a lot of brands to choose from and their shipping is really good too. And you can always find coupons online to get discounts for their stuff...usually 5%. Most of the time they are cheaper than getting parts from Advance or AutoZone including shipping.

Make sure you have some petroleum jelly for the bearings and some patients
