Re: '68 Short Step....What's wrong with the steering?
Well, i guess i "figured it out". The problem was actually getting better the more i drove it, but i still had some water in the fluid because it was milky. So i was removing the PS fluid, adding more, working the steering, then repeat. I just got it almost clear when "Bam" the front of the power steering gear box blew out shooting my almost clear fluid onto the driveway . It looked like it had been hit in it's previous life on the late 70's truck & an inch of the lip that holds the retainer clip broke off. So it's off to the bone yard to find another gearbox............{sigh}
Now, how do i center/line-up the new one when i do the install to make sure i have equal turns to each side??
