I have not got an over the counter part number yet.  The IH Model is S-281 and IH Code 05281.
Maybe Kevin can help us.  The cost for the two posibilites (3/4" or 13/16" input shaft) is about $225
to $250 rebuilt.

I could not find a picture of the steering box, but your line setting tag has the exact same number as
mine.  Do you still have paperwork with a part number of your replacement?  My box is mounted to the
outside of the frame.

Thanks Again,
