Well, James, does it wander, or just leak? Brad got a re-built and swears by
it. I will screw around with mine until Chuck builds my ring and pinion.

Well, it sounds like there's multiple things possibly that need to be done.
If it were me I'dd pull it and replace it with a rebuilt unit or have yours
rebuilt. The problem is that after 50+ years it's probably time anyway.

Here you go James. Step by step by Hazet guy on the Samba. And the
seal is available from Bus Boys for less than $5.

Has anyone had experience rebuilding a steering box on a splitty?
Mine is leaking like a sieve.
I was told by a local mechanic that there is no literature available
on the size of the seals in the box and the best way to do it would be to take
it apart and source the parts after removing them to get measurements.
Believe it or not this is the last thing I need done on this Bus to
drive it long distance!
