I need to do the 2wd steering box thing to finish up my steering...Would it be easier/faster to swap the entire box or just swap out the sector shafts?

swap the shaft
.... its way faster than removing/swapping the box

for me it was eaiser to swap the whole box, cause i put in the steering brace kit at the same time

When I originally did the Xover, I swapped boxes. Once I played with the relief valve in my pump to make up for the front locker, I started twisting sector shafts...so I've swapped a few of them both at home and on the trail. Seems to me it's 6 of one, half a dozen of the other. Which box is tighter?

Just the shaf, piece of cake. Be careful, the inside of my box reeked like manure.
Sounds like I'll be doing the shaft swap. And thanks for the link Steve...That answered alot of questions.
