I just finished the upgrade on my 66. I found a box from an 88 Caprice F41 WZ box and ordered a seal kit from Lee Mfg. I also ordered the seats to press in the new box to use my original lines from Lee and used a rag joint from an 81 Chevy Truck. The box was pretty easy to take apart and reassemble but I had to make one tool to hold the bearings in. I waited to find the higher effort box and it was well worth the wait. I like the feedback the higher effort gives and it feels like rack and pinion steering, feels like it is locked in when the wheels are straight when driving. It is kind of hard to discribe but like marxjunk said "Awesome!". The total cost was only $75.00 including the parts from Lee.
Todd.
