I need a new steering box and I was wondering if I could rebuild mine. What parts would I need? How hard is it? Is it worth the trouble or should I just buy a rebuilt box? Thanks

You'll need a press to press the bushings off and on, then you have to find whatever parts you need. It's much less hassle to just get a rebuilt unit.
