Jensen 1800 steering box leak
hey lads, well after dissasembling the steering rack and replacing the 2 bushes, i reassembled it with correct bearings/race/washer/shims. the only issue i noticed, is that when the box in on an angle, fluid will poor out the front cover hole for the horn wire, and if i angle it down with the steering shaft facing the floor the fluid will poor out the end of the shaft. so im thinking its somehow leaking from the front bearing/race and getting into the steering shaft. im assuming that this may be a common problem/mistake.
any info greatly appreciated. im also considering getting an ez powersteering kit to save the hassle. is it really worth the money for the impact on the steering? cheers
