140 steering box ? 140-160

What are my options for 1970 145S steering box refurbishment?

Can new refurbishment parts for the bushings seals and recirculating ball assy be found anywhere?

Is there a reputable source for remanufactured steering boxes anywhere?

I've rebuilt my whole front end w/ bushings and ball joints. Now I get a lot of wandering on the hiway due to free-play in straight ahead position. A while ago I tightened up the adjuster screw as much as I dared. I might try another adjustment, but think an overhaul or replacement might be a better bet for the long run.

Thanks for any input !

Later,
Al

145S lives and is fun to drive
(not as fun as 260Z, tho) :^D
