Re: Steering
A long time ago I bought an F100 steering box from the late Mel Gross. It worked great for a number of years, then it started leaking. I told Mel about it and he said pull it out of the car and I will fix it for you. I would rather spend a few hours at the dentist that have to pull that steering box. I just put some Penrite steering box lube in it and it quit leaking.
About a year ago I had the engine out and that makes pulling the steering box much easier. Randy Gross lives just down the road from me. He stopped by on his way home from work on a Friday evening and picked up the steering box. Sunday evening he stopped by on his way home from his dad's shop with my steering box completely rebuilt. I wanted to pay him for it since I bought the box from his dad at least 20 years ago. He would not accept any money. That is the kind of guy Randy is.
