1975 highboy steering cylinder seal

can anyone help me locate a outer seal for the steering cylinder on my 1975 f250 highboy? I have found several places that sell rebuilt cylinders but no luck finding the seal or even a rebuild kit w/seal.

They're getting pretty scarce, NPD was carrying them so you may want to check there, last i heard Greensales still had a few left as did a few other obsolete parts dealers as of ND's last reply to this very same query.

My catalog's a few years old but the seal kit is on page 85 ($41.00) part #F-3A764-2, i've heard they were either low or completely out of their limited supply but it's worth a shot to give them a call.

Thanks again for your help. I called NPD and the part number was good but not available any more. I found a seal kit for a 68-73 mustang steering cylinder but I don't know if it will work on the f250 highboy steering cylinder. Any thoughts?

I don't believe they're the same seals, you can give these companies a try... Lares Corporation .......

The '75 Hiboy I own came with a Chebby PS system pre-installed.

Guy could (sort of) weld. But that's a lot of work.
