thank you for OP for the instruction. I build on these instructions and DIY power steering box shaft seal replacement.
Purchased Gate power steering repair kit 350650. It was $10.76 + shipping from rock auto. This can possibly be sourced from Repco.
After step 7, this is DIY steps
- make sure jeep wheels are dead straight. This helps to remove the steering shaft. Remove the airbox to access to top of the power steering box.
- Remove the 4 bolts on top of the power steering box. make sure you mark them so they can go back in the same order.
- Slowly tap out the steering shaft from the bottom. the PS fluid will flow out so put an oil pan underneath.
- Now clean shaft .
- Replace the seals. Use the snap ring plier to remove the snap ring. Seals are easy to remove using a screwdriver.
- Used a 32 mm socket to tap in the new seals.
- Before you put the shaft back on apply some grease to the shaft and the newly installed seals. This way nothing gets caught and damaged when you reinstall the shaft.
- Reinstall shaft. Refill power steering and enjoy no leaks.
The job took me 2-3 hours job with many families + dog disruptions. Took me 3-4 weeks of research to find the correct power steering seal kit: Gate power steering repair kit 350650.
Total cost: pitman arm puller kits (56)+ snap ring plier (12) + Power steering seal (10.76)+ 2-3 man-hours + 1L of PS fuild.
