Anybody repair their steering box?

Jim, it was real sensitive low value torque indicator. I have got to find the 1991 Truck service manual as I believe that was where I found the torque value for the thrust bearing on the spool valve shaft.

I am not sure if it's been mentioned yet....but double check your lines. If you put them on backwards you'll only have power steering in one direction. It's easy to accidently put them in the wrong hole. I ran into this once and chased my tail trying to figure it out. Double check them before you go blowing some money....I learned the hard way.

Best of luck. The box rebuild kits can be bought thru parts stores. They aren't too bad to rebuild.

I'm pretty sure the lines are correct.
I have a van pump and took pictures.
Haven't been able to find a spool valve, but did find seal kits on eBay.
For now I'm just horsing the wheel in right turns (parallel parking can be a challenge when people are "close behind")
