Just swapped out my steering box
Just wondering what to do with it.
As i got a used replacement. Its just sitting on bench leaking.
Do some companies take them to refurb.
Dont want to bin it. If it can be brought back to life

Depends on what is wrong with it, but you can re-seal it yourself, fill it up with PAS fluid and pop the bungs in and save it for a rainy day.

I did mine not so long ago and it cost me €45 all in for a new seal kit and a speedi-sleeve.

Much better than the €550 they wanted for a new one

probably needs adjusted and sorting, not in the UK or would have taken a look.

You could open it up and take a peek to see how bad the land is on the shaft.
