My steering gear box has leaked for three years. Today I got a rebuilt unit from CIP1 and filled it with 90W gear oil. It leaks like a sieve from the roller shaft seal JUST like my old one. Clearly I will send it back. One, I really don't know how to install the new box but I can't install a leaking rebuilt box. Anybody got advice....I need some help. What is the deal with a rebuilt steering box that leaks just as the OE part does???? Shocked
