Power Steering Box

My power steering box blew a hole thru the end cap. The bolt was just laying loose in there and the threads are fine so it must have just backed out. Does anybody know where to buy just a end cap and o-ring seal I have been searching the web and all I can find is a seal kit. The truck is a 1979 C10

Re: Power Steering Box

I am sure I will be corrected. but I think shes dead, I don't think that will buff out!
I would be callin up red-head steering and seeing what they can do.

Side question, what happened to your sway bar end bushing?
Nice truck BTW!

Re: Power Steering Box

You can get a rebuilt box at a local parts store for about $140!

Re: Power Steering Box

Yeah...I put a rebuilt box in my Suburban this past summer. I think it ran me about $120 at Napa.
