Default Need a new steering gear box

My gear box is shot. The dealership won't warranty it either. My question is there any aftermarket boxes that are any good? I've seen prices from $300 to $800. I only have 30k on my jeep and if I buy one from chrysler will I be replacing it again? I also bought the JKS steering reinforcement kit to put on with the new box. Thanks for any help

Why won't the dealship warranty it? Is it due to the amount of lift or the tire size?

I have a lift kit and bigger tires. My ball joints were toast too. I replaced them with dynatrac prosteers. I have 2 tierod ends that I need to fix when I do the gearbox.
