Dont know the part# but I got a sector shaft seal from autozone, came with a new snap ring and bushing, IIRC. Maybe if they look up sector shaft seal, or steering shaft seal (you didnt say wich seal you need)

There is usually a reason the seal is leaking, very rarely because the seal is bad. If the shaft is moving around because of worn mechanical parts, the new seal will leak also.

Question

Will an 86 gear box out of a truck with the same specs work on my 85 truck?
