Good morning Gents,
I would like to ask some advice concerning the steering box on my 86 Safari 260 Series.
It seems that the shaft inside this box is worn and this causes the power steering fluid to leak out the top (or bottom) of the steering box. I have asked the opinion of a local Hydraulic Shop around my area (George, WC) and it seems that there is only two solutions. One is to remove the box and have the whole shaft re-engineered and two is to purchase a new box. Both these options are quite expensive and would research other methods before burning a whole in my wallet.
I do appreciate any assistance.
Have a good day.
