If your happy with the strength of the stock one or can't fit a HD unit because of wheel offset etc then just grab a second hand one. Lots of people ( and parts suppliers etc ) change them out not because they ares stuffed rather as they want aftermarket. You can get virtually brand new for bargain prices compares with a stealer.. or replacement parts.

You can get after market Crown ones for way less BUT by many accounts can come with early failure after a few 1000
Couldnt find any ready source of take off steering here in UK so bit the bullet and purchased OEM again, with some discount.
Current ones have lasted 84,000
Its the main Tie Rod that is the really singularly expensive item
