My '32 steering box has sat neglected (no lube) for long time.
Filled with heavy lube oil and it leaks badly out of bottom. Haven't messed with car for years.
Is there a 'seal' of some sort at bottom of box that will need replaced ? Do you guys have any other suggestions/remedy for stopping such bad leak...short of removing box for rebuild ??
