I need to rebuild or replace the powersteering valve body assembly on my car as mine leaks all the time. I can buy a rebuilt one from CJ pony for 150 plus core or rebuild myself for about 45 dollars. Or i found one a advantage auto for $99 less $50 from my core, so a net of $50 and a 1 yr warrenty. Of course they have one for $149 less $45 core that have a lifetime warrenty. So what do you think and what do you think the real difference is between the 1yr and life time warranty units.------------------ 68 mustang coupe(california special)not real though but looks it(will be nice) 351w/c4 My 68 Coupe [url=http://mustangsamdmore.50megs.com/ewokeric.html]

My power steering doesn't leak (knock on wood). I replaced all the hoses and used a rebuilt control valve from Auto Zone. ------------------ JT FOR SALE: '68 Coupe w/351W, C4, P/S, 8" w/3.25, Orig. paint (Wimbelton White) & interior (Ivy Gold), A/C (not working) '01 BULLITT #3357, Dark Highland Green

I rebuilt my girlfriend's 67cpe in March and was suprized how eazy it went, all done in about an hour. To tell the truth, if I had plenty of money, I would've just bought a rebuild and do a simple R&R.
