Re: Steering box rebuild.

Very interesting!

Do a Google search on:

mopar action lower pressure on power steering pump

You will find a pdf of the article.  I have been thinking about going
to a manual box because of the power steering lack of road feel and
too sensitive, this sounds like something worth trying.

Lowering the pressure in the pump brings a lot of road feel to the steering system.   You did look at the rest of the frontend? When I rebuilt mine in the truck I actually had to learn how to drive it again.  The box may not be that worn, the rest or even just one piece will create a lot of slop.
