finally an update, although not a large one. took the steering box out of the tank of degreaser finally, after about 1 month simmering ;0) it was really easy to clean up as you can imagine. if anyone thought it was impossible to get the arm piece that connects to the pitman arm off the end plate....well it is possible without taking the bolt out. there is a trick to it and i did it on accident as noted by my frustration trying to get it back on with out disturbing the factory setting on that bolt on the end plate. i got it though, luckily.

painted stuff with rust converter, letting it dry good for final paint.

put on the dust boots on the connecting pieces. eventually you will see an update with the steering all put together again.

sorry i have been gone so long, but it sure did feel good to get out in the garage again.

later dudes,

Hank
