2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission steering box

[JMcrae]

I want to install a new steering box. I replaced the box once already but had it done at a local shop( I supplied the parts ,they just put it in. ). That box was never right so I got a new one on warrenty , but I want to put it in myself this time .

The first box was a 4 1/4 turn , I checked the new one and I think it is the 3 1/4 turn. I have the hanes manual and it explains how to remove and re-install the steering box but not how to install a new box. I figure it is the same procedure but is there anything that I should know that might not be in the manual ?

Actually a step by step from someone who has done this would be appreciated

thanks for any info

Put It Back On Just Like It Came Off. Make Sure The Steering Wheel Is Locked So It Cant Turn I Tied Mine In Place While I Did It Just For Assurance. After It Is Installed Just Bleed The Air Out By Jacking It Up And Turning The Wheels Left To Right. i Did Mine Using The Haynes Manual With No Problems.
