Power Steering Gears Picture anybody? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BrianStep72 · 08-23-2003, 05:18 PM

Do any of my net friends have an 'exploded view' picture (probably a drawing from chiltons or something) of the 72 power steering gearbox? I have to pull mine apart and I don't think i'm doing something right.

Can anybody scan that page and post it? Or post a link to it?

Thanks very much,

Jeff,

Thanks so much for the post, that was exactly what i was looking for. I can see from the picture that the leak at the top of my unit appears to be in the area of the TOP O ring seal (#28 in your photo). I will be having to pull the steering column loose, 4 bolts and see if I can get that o ring out.

Man, these leaks are a *****.

Does any of your manual talk about replacing the seals? Is there any *easy* way of doing this? (ha ha ha)
OK.

Let me put it this way... are there any instructions...

Brian
