Inside the steering gear, seals are designed to keep fluid in and contaminants out as the shafts turn. With age and mileage they can harden, crack or wear. Signs that the gear may need resealing include seepage or leaks around the gear housing and a grime-coated gear box. If worn seals are causing the leak, this kit supplies replacements. Inspect the shafts and housing for wear, and follow the vehicle service information for the rebuild procedure.
