Thread: Having trouble sealing steering box

Been working on my power steering system recently, which consisted of replacing the pump with an oem unit and installing new orings on the rigid lines on top of the steering box. Has anyone else had trouble sealing these lines up after replacing the orings with genuine LR parts? It leaked before, which is why I replaced them, but appears to still be seeping a little on the high pressure line entering the box. The previous owner had several washers stacked on top of the plate that holds these lines down, which I removed. Anyway, just wondering if anyone has struggled getting this thing sealed up, and what you did to resolve it.

I wish it was that easy for me, the new pump is nice and smooth but didn't do much about my leak. Was really hoping the new orings would dry it up.
