Hi All, I'm fixing to rebuild my steering box on my '48 Super A and I have a few questions for you guys. I've looked around for a kit for the rebuild and have found they sell for $60 to $100. It looks like they all have the same parts in them (2 bearings, 2 seals, 2 bushings and a gasket). So what's the difference between the high priced ones and the low priced ones? Most of the descriptions have the exact same picture in them and all of them say the bushings need to be reamed to size. Which brings me to my next question.

So what have you guys used to size the bushings? Also, I see in the parts diagrams on the IH site that a half-moon key is used. Does anyone know the size of that key? I have a few keys in my parts bins but I sure would like to have the size so I will have everything I need when I tear it down. Thanks in advance for any help.
