Looking for a company that I can send my power steering box to for rebuild. Or else a reputable company that I can purchase a box from.

You can try Roger Rode at Rode's Restorations. They are who NPD uses. I don't know if they also do pickup steering boxes, but if they don't, they can probably refer to to who does.

Update: I ended up going to NAPA The reason I was looking for a rebuilder was because I don't trust the parts store rebuilds for such things when I know the part I'm taking off is sound it just needs new seals and such. IMO You don't always know what abuse the core got that you're receiving when you buy a rebuilt part at a parts store. And my experience with Advanced Auto's rebuilt parts has been pretty bad (4 alternators in 1 year for the same car, the last one caught my car on fire Finally went to the junk yard and got one; end of problems!
