Default Anyone make an aftermarket steering ratio?

Just wondering if there are any aftermarket ratios for the steering box? This year Id like to upgrade the steering by making it tighter and getting rid of the play. I recall something for getting rid of the rubber bushing to help remove that slop, but I cant find anything about a tighter ratio. Any idea?

I don't know but a lot of guys seem to swap to the 3500 box as it's a fixxed ratio and a lot cheaper. Some have said it makes it tighter and harder to turn the wheel but doesn't seem to be a big deal. You might want to look into that. I can't recall what the ratio of it is.


The other option is PSC. I don't know if they make ones with a different ratio but they seem to be the one to go with if you want it to last.

I've read complaints about AGR.

Here is the link for PSCs. I got to thinking and IO don't know if they have a 2wd one or even if there is a difference.

Don't know if it would achieve the same results, but I was thinking about getting one of these in the future:
