Can be pretty cheap if you do the salvage yard route or maybe $150 if you buy from part stores. All-in-all, it provides a much more firm steering feel which helps when you are at highway speeds.
I've done this JGC conversion on about a dozen Chevelles...including the '66 Sedan presently in my shop.
Awesome swap!!
The box MUST be from a '93-98 Jeep GRAND CHEROKEE only!! And the rag joint needed is P/N Lares 200 found @ Advance Auto.
