hey guys

i guy at work has an 84/85 rangie with a leaking power steering box

he is a fitter and turner by trade and has access to a good workshop and is keen to rebuild it himself to save a few dollars

are the parts easy to get hold of from say a bearing seal shop

does somebody have the part number

If its a 3 bolt box then he will need to get a bronze bush and ream it to suit the sector shaft, there is 1 in top lid and in the lower part of the box. 4 bolt boxes use bearings i believe and if worn may be not rebuidable.
There is an oversize viton replacement seal for the lower sector shaft seal that help with leaking boxes.

Where do you source the oversize Viton seals?

I know LRA sell them and probably other LR specialists.
