Alternate ratio steering gearbox

I would really like to put a tighter ratio steering box in my truck. The one I have now is pretty crappy lock to lock. Does NE1 know if there is any interchangable boxes with better ratio's? There has to be! I still have to "try" to tighten the meshplay, maybe that will help some of the loose steering blues, but I would still like a better ratio box.


BTW, I finished with the lift kit and will be posting some photos and a short summary of my experiance with that (as soon as I get the digital camera I want in a couple of days). I am also cleaning up my old 15 x 7 aluminum stock rims and 85% tread, 31 x 10 1/2 Michelins(?), they will be for sale, along with some other items for Ford trucks, like a brand new rev. rotation 18" flex fan, (2) different testers and maybe even the whole Jacobs ignition system.

Look around on the internet, i think i saw a kit on an offroad website to install a GM style Saginaw power steering box of f-150's. One of those might be available in a ratio you like.
