Looking at my options, what do you guys recommend.
Sticking to a 37-38" tire size.
I currently have a stock box drilled/tapped for assist, that is blown.
I will be installing a cooler and a remote resi no matter what i go with as well.
My options:
1) rebuild current box (im also picking up a spare box)
cheapest option
2)go with PSC Extreme series assist box:

Say goodbye to re-manufactured steering gears. PSC brings you the All New Large Piston Jeep Replacement Gear Box. PSC's # 1 Selling Jeep gear Is all new for 2010. Featuring a Large Piston for more brute turning force and a 16:1 Ratio for Tight and Accurate steering. Top it off with PSC's Orginal 4 Bolt Cover and End Cap for the Ultimate Jeep Steering Gear Replacement.
We recommend matching a new pump to your system for the most significant improvement.
Specs:
they also have a rebuilt xtreme duty for $470
3)AGR Super box
http://www.agrperformance.com/catalog/products.php?cat=101
This steering box is engineered to be the ultimate in bolt-on power steering performance for those vehicles used for more off-road than on road driving. Designed to be the most powerful and nimble steering with the least amount of effort, the SB1 features the largest piston available and a special spool valve to increase turning force. Total Bearing Control locks in the sector shaft for smooth steering. This box combined with an AGR Super Pump will provide the maximum available turning force in a steering box combination. Want more power than this? You'll need to step up to the AGR ROCKRAM* System.
(they dont list the option for an assist box, but they sell an assist kit, so im sure i could get just the box)
just the regular super box runs at $422
4) Howe steering box

what do you guys think? how long should a stock box work w/ assist on 37's and a spool? i am working on making my steering angles a little better as well.
