It was raining today; so I couldn’t do anything else so I put her back in the garage and cleaned up the power steering “area”.
I’ve had a small leak coming from somewhere over there, but never enough to worry me and it was mixed/soaked into a half inch of Georgia clay so no telling where it stems from.
Got it cleaned up and let it run until something showed and it looks like I’ve got a leak in the input shaft seal (where the column shaft enters above the frame).
Looked up kits and stuff and they’re cheap, but is this something I could possibly do without removing the entire steering box?
Or am I looking at removing the box and doing a larger rebuild/clean?
Note that this is my daily driver and it can only be out of commission from 5pm on Friday to 730am on Monday if I’m going to do the work myself.
Let me know if you’ve got some experience or tips on how to make this work.
