1. This video was a waste of life

2. Blue does not go above 2008 .

3. You should do a 2022 update video on this. Curious as to the longer term durability

4. I bought one from autozone and my truck still have play so i just watched this video i will order one from bluetop and a question, my truck is a 2004 chevy silverado 2500hd 4×4 diesel so which one i need the 3 master splines or 4?

5. this review really shows and tells nothing

6. We are here to see the gear box and this idiots talk about how good is the packaging is

7. 10 mins of my life ill never get back.

8. The ears on top under the 4 bolt cover is a steel crush type gasket, the ears just holds and index the gasket. The un-painted mount lug is most likely where they held it to paint or a ground point for powder coat. The number one thing in 3 1/2 decades of resealing or rebuilding these is the lower housing is worn on the front & rear. It is now egg shaped and machining it, pressing a bushing in with thread locking sealant before installing the needle bearing cage and the seal group is overlock all of the time. It works great for a while but larger tire or pushing snow places a huge lateral load on this housing. The pitman arm wants to push forward or pull backwards towards the cab. These forces are huge and the housing takes the wear. I would put the cross-shaft in with a dial indicator to look for movement. It added $100 dollars as we had to drive it to the machine shop that we used. They made a fixture to hold it still and machine & press in a steel bushing. Still dripping in solvent but never had a come back. And this was during the early 70’s at a 2 man shop with 22 mile drive one way to the machine shop. The added time, expense and four trips did not make us money but was passed at cost to the customer.

9. How’s it been performed so far? I’m going to need to replace mine soon. Any recommendations would be highly appreciated. Thank you

10. After 5 minutes its a ramble

11. How’s the box holding up after a year? Thanks bob 👍🏻🇺🇸

12. Nice vid. Are they only doing like 2500 and heavy duty modals or are they making them for 1500? I have a Tahoe 1500 and was wondering

13. I will NEVER get another Redhead box. Garbage! And poor customer support on top of that. Never again!

14. What is the best to use for 2001 silverado 5.3 ls steering gearbox atf or ps fluid?

15. My first(and last) redhead was DOA. They couldn't be bothered to answer the phone or return my call, so I've moved on. They seem to be losing in the QC and service department, just like the ones supplying the national chains, so I'm sending a box to a smaller shop for a custom build. Building these boxes isn't rocket science, but if you're not looking for factory performance then it's no longer one size fits all. They can set it up to perform the best for your application, tap it for hydro assist, change ratio, valving, etc. I'm using Benchworks, but there's Lee and many others out there.

    Also, GM did paint engines blue in the late 70s and into the 80s. i think it was called corporate blue.

16. Have had 2 redheads. Both junk. Shopping replacements and find the guy who owns Bluetop used to work for Redhead.

17. How can you have so many followers as a "garage" channel when you're having your mechanic install a gearbox? Waste of time…

18. Yea I been hearing alot of ppl complaining about Redhead steering boxes. Especially on the f250 trucks like what I run.. Many ppl don't recommend these after owning one. So I decided to wait on buying one. Leaning towards Bluetop now

19. So you're doing a comparison between redhead and blue top but all you do is talk about the blue top. I failed to see the comparison

20. With all due respect, PS fluid is a mineral based oil that hasn't changed significantly since it was used as ATF in the old fluid drive transmissions of the 50s. It was called Type A back then. The only difference between different brands is some additives, which are fairly insignificant. The AC Delco fluid is probably from the same plant as the Walmart/O'Reilly's etc. Flushing the system and installing an inline filter on the return side of the pump will do way more for the life of the pump thana certain fluid can.

21. Maybe rebuild the second box and port it for Hydro assist. Should reduce the load on the box itself.

22. I’m wondering if anyone knows if there’s a major difference between the red head heavy duty steering pump it’s like 800 and something dollars and the one that’s like $500. I have an 08 dodge ram Cummins 2500 ,Running 38 x 13 1/2 wide I’m wondering which one I have to get or if there’s another better option or something because my steering has been loose but now it’s snapped that bolt completely

23. Lame vid

24. How is it now 8 months later, how many miles on it?

25. Blue goes with Chevy??? Are you a millennial??? 😅😅😅 You’ve never heard of “The Blue Oval”? Hint hint, Ford! 😅

26. Most manufacturers dip to paint they dont usually use spray guns. They will dip 100's of parts at one time.
