Does anyone have an idea on my 72 PS Gearbox. It sat for 15 years and blew the seal when I put it back on my restored truck. I exchanged it at NAPA for a reman. That one was too stiff. Steering wheel wouldn't return. They gave me another. It's tight as far as no play, but there is absolutely no feel to it. Its like it has a super volume and pressure pump. I had a shop try to adjust the screw on top, but they said they couldnt tighten it any more. My other 72 feels correct. Any help would be appreciated.
