Steering Box Seals
How hard is it to change the top input seal in a power steering gear box?

re: Steering Box Seals
I did mine several years ago it wasn't to difficult I did all the seals and washer bearings as i call them plus you can clean out the gear box of all the years of crap and check the gears for wear and also replace the rubber flex joint between the steering shaft and steering box you will notice the diff on the steering responce afterwards.

re: Steering Box Seals
Where can I find a schematic for a 76 saginaw power steering gear box? I have never worked on one before. The box itself is tight but the input shaft seal is leaking.

re: Steering Box Seals
I belive that NAPA sells the kits and it comes with a diagram on installation procedure, they might come in two kits.... top and bottom sets mine came in two kits to do the complete box comes as seals and washer type bearings its been 4 yrs since i did mine so it is vague on the details good parts suppler will be able to answer most of your Q,s and reasonable easy to do. Hope that helps,, Tim P.
