Which screw do I remove to fill grease ? I believe it is the very bottom on the left, screw with the groves cut into it.......It is on there TIGHT
May have 2 use an impact, will it round the head ???????? I take off the vent screw & fill grease in bottom hole?????????? DOES STEERING BOX LOOK NEW OR REBUILT ? I DID CLEAN IT .........IT LOOKS FAIRLY NEW TO ME.
I DO HOPE IT IS FAIRLY NEW !!!!!!! P/O DID REPLACE SOME NEW PARTS KOOL.......DADDY O'

I think this is an article that may have been referred to in this forum at some point, but I can't seem to find the post, so .....Steering Box Lubrication (stangerssite.com)

All 3 of you guys are right some & have helped. I did not notice about the cover, and not certain about the lower bolt because I saw this done for a Falcon not a truck. I remember you do as Philthytoo says except u use the same hole to fill & steer truck to max both ways each time filling to comes out hole........I guess U could use different holes......... ....... "and she said".............ha...
