Default Power steering rebuilder recommendations ?

So I ordered a 670 box from global west in June , and summit finally canceled the order because the 670 boxes are back ordered nationwide with no eta from Delphi . I have a 96 Jeep Grand Cherokee box to rebuild . I was looking at turn one or power steering services . Tom lee of lee steering retired and closed shop this year . Any opinions ? Thanks !

I called power steering services and chip said he didn't want to mess with the 'metric' 800 jeep box . I guess I'll just keep waiting for Delphi to start shipping 670 boxes out .

I tried to get Redhead to rebuild two boxes, one power on my 60 Ventana and one manual on my 61 Bel Air and they would not do it, they just wanted to do an exchange and their price was rediculas. Cars are low mileage originals that I restored so I wanted to keep all original equipment in tacked. I ended up using Done Right Steering. The guys name is Sam

I read this article and this how I found Sam. Sam is Harry's son in law and has taken over the business. Sam is also the one that did the rebuild in the article.http://www.hotrod.com/how-to/chassis...g-box-rebuild/
