steering box
« on: August 30, 2010, 05:41:04 am »
I have an old steering box that was on my 85 4x4. I have never really drove this truck before i did the re build so i cant tell much about this box. It looks like it is leaking from every where. Can you re build these things, are they known to go and leak, should I just bite the bullet and replace it. They are pretty pricey so i just want to see what my opitions are. I have also installed a 6" lift and 35" tires so I want good tight steering.
