First of all, a BIG THANKS to | CyanogenMod | Linus Yang | Stephen (Stericson) | for the BusyBox binaries; "More suitable for Android than the prebuilt ARM binaries from busybox.net"
This is a flashable zip that will install the latest/stable BusyBox:
(1.24.2-Stericson) built 2016.04.23
(1.22.1 bionic) built 2015.01.01
(1.21.1-linusyang) built 2013.10.08
Install location is /system/xbin with system-wide symlinks to all necessary applets (and then some...)
A simple flash from recovery is all that's needed

BusyBox Cleaner

md5: d0215a1c25ae5cc7254fed2269a93c21
BusyBox Cleaner can be used to remove all symlinks in /system/xbin that point to BusyBox (useful for testing builds/removing broken links) but does not delete the BusyBox binary.
(thanks @Phil3759 for the delcount function/idea)
