Re: power steering gear seal replacement
Not to put a damper on your efforts but I hear its a PITA, have you checked around for another? Boneyard, parts house, etc? Mine leaked like a sieve I found a guy with a stash of parts offered him $20 bucks and lucked out I guess, I hear tearing into them can get rough, no firsthand experience tho....

Re: power steering gear seal replacement
Ive done a lot of them & they never seemed hard. You dont have to completely tear it down. If you get ready to do it let me know & i will give step by step as best I can. georgec2434@yahoo.com

Re: power steering gear seal replacement
Which seal are you talking about? The one that the steering shaft attaches to (input shaft), or the pitman arm seal? I have done both and it is not that difficult. You can get the parts at advance auto.
