I know this is a old thread but one of the main reasons I joined this forum was to learn 411 like this. Thanks Kevin

Now a 1 day owner of a 72.....and of course with a leaky steering box. My initial thought was I need to replace it but as mentioned most remans are a POS.

I will get the seal kits and do this. First time for me doing a steering box but I have worn that hat 100's of times wrenching since I was 16.

My box has a "S" so I assume its a Saginaw box and has a number 4. Its power steering
