Re: Brake fluid trick for leaky steering box?
It’s very inexpensive and not difficult to reseal the box. You can do it with the steering box still attached to the frame. There are some write ups on it here, it’s easy. I’ve done several since they all seem to leak.

I've decided to pass on any tricks or additives, you guys talked me out of it thanks. Might fix the box for a stint, then again, seems it might blow a seal in a perfectly good pump.
