After a bit of haranguing from others, I think I'll go ahead and change out my steering box.
I was thinking of the AGR 12:1 box. I've done some searches for feedback on these and there wasn't much. The few comments seemed relatively positive except that it's heavy. How can a steering box weigh 40lb?? Wowsers.
Anyhoo ... any other feedback on the AGR?
Also, there was a note: "1978-84 cars when replacing 605 type snap ring box will require a larger pitman arm and input coupler."
I'm not sure if I have the 605 type. I have a 78 TA, I don't think it's a WS6.
If I do need a new pitman arm and input coupler, anybody know exactly what I need and where I can get them?
