It is a throw-away part, cheaply built and cost reflects that, no matter which supplier you choose (the exception being a Mercedes-Benz part , which is priced outrageously high!). Changing the steering dampner every 2-3 years is cheaper than doing an oil change.
Right. I had misread your post. Never mind.
