Once I talked to the folks at PSC there is only one rated for the Diesel Engine Trucks. The rest are for Gas engine only and they don't recommend the light valving one for anything used on the road. So this kinda narrowed the choice down pretty good. Wish I could could tell you how well it works but it's still sittin on the bench. Spent some days puttin up Oak fencing and for the last 3 days been to sun burnt to even put a shirt on.

My trucks got the BD Steering Box Stabalizer and my steering wheel is very tight.

Anyone running an AGR box?

My truck is sitting on a lift having a BUNCH of front end work done, need to make a decision on a steering box (don't mean to hijack).

AGR boxes are good as well. I havent read much about them though.

Got the gear changed out yesterday. Truck drives like a dream now. Steers easier and more responsive then the 07 I drove for a few days. This thing used to make my shoulder sore to put many miles on between the hard steering and having to constantly be correcting it just to go in a straight line. Now it tracks exactly straight down the road and steers with a finger. Now I have to get used to this and trying not to oversteer the truck. I was hopin for an improvement but never imagined it would make this big a difference. This PSC gear is incredible. I'm a happy camper!!!!!

Good news!!!!

Now, I MIGHT drop some dollars. I wonder if I should just try to clean out my ps pump or replace it too? sometimes, just after I start, it's hard to steer out of a parking spot... but rarely after that.

I sent PSC an email asking them if the gear that Uncle Bubba bought will be ok to use with a hydraulic winch.
I haven't heard back yet.
