    Parts for 50 year old cars are fast becoming hard to source. Rockauto has a listing but are out of stock.

    Steering sectors for any Granada/Monarch & '68-'71 Fairlane/Torino are same as Mav/Comet. There are different ratios for P/S & manual. Granadas usually had P/S.

    Hey HarleyGA,
    I've had great luck with a company called Stangers. I worked at a restoration shop and we sent all of our steering boxes to these guys. They offer parts as well as rebuilding services. Website is www.stangerssite.com. Good luck!

    I know I am late to the game, but Rodes Restorations in Galion, Ohio will rebuild your steering box. Very reasonable in price and quick turn around.

    I purchased a rebuilt manual steering box from carsteering.com. Only cost $205 with free shipping. Core charge was $125 refundable and they even paid shipping cost to return the old unit. Installed it a few days ago. Works perfectly! No free play at all. I forgot how nice it was to have factory fresh steering,
