Toyota steering part #?
So I'm getting ready to put the Toyota box on my frame, and I'm looking to replace the Pitman arm seal before I finish the install. I got one which was part #12705 which I think is for the manual box, since it looks quite different from the one I pulled out. Anyone replaced this seal lately and care to share a part# ? The parts guys said that was the only listing, and my search of rockauto and partsamerica weren't very successful.
Thanks for the help!

Thank you

So to get the old seal out I threaded 2 skinny sheetmetal screws into the seal and pulled it out that way.
The Toyota dealer was useless, but I found a site online that listed a complete seal kit for our box. prosteering.com lists a full seal kit for about 50 bucks. I have one on order and I'll let everyone know if it is the right one for our application.

So I think I can now say I've got it all under control with Toyota part #'s.
If you just want the Sector (Pitman Arm) seal the part # is 223210
If you want a complete seal kit for the Toyota box the part # is 8385 at Prosteering.com
The seal was tough to get by itself, even with the part # most places couldn't (or wouldn't) order it.
If anyone needs a Pitman arm seal or wants an entire reseal kit, let me know. I bought extra seals since my order went straight to Federal Mogul (through Rock Auto) and the s/h was outrageous so I figured I'd get extras since they didn't raise the S/H.
I also have a complete reseal kit available that I bought from Prosteering just to open up, get some part #'s and take some dimensions on the seal I needed.
I placed an ad in the classifieds, I have 2 extra Pitman seals and 1 complete reseal kit for sale. That was quite the Scooby Doo mystery, it only took 4 months and over a hundred bucks in parts to get the one seal I needed. But you know what, it was totally worth it. I carefully drove the new seal in and installed the box on the frame. I'm moving onwards & upwards from here!

Glad you found the seal numbers. My suggestion was going to be measuring the old seal with a set of calipers and measuring the shaft diameter. Seals are almost always measured in MM, and can be obtained by dimension from any bearing supply house. I've done it that way when part numbers weren't readily available.
