Steering Box
My steering box is leaking. I checked the PS pump and it is dry. The lines going in and out of the box are dry. Any ideas where I can get a box? New? Rebuilt? NAPA? Dealer? I like doing things right the first time. No half a-- fixes.

Where is it leaking? Check the lines going out of the bottom of the resivoir they could be leaking down onto the box.
I had one leaking around the input shaft. All I did was put in the input seal and that was a year ago. No more leak.

There's an O-Ring on the return line. It's usually the culprit.
If your going to replace the box. Get one of Red Heads units. Best on the market, for just a bit more $$
