Other than obvious wear issues on the bearings and worm and sector gears, the Service Bulletin information is all that your need to restore your steering gear to its original state.

Ok I'll give it a try, but this being my first one I was looking for a detailed exploded diagram or similar, I have a box of 32 steering gears (all unassembled)

Figure 126 on the first page in the Service Bulletin (page 79) in post #2 above reveals pretty much all of the parts and there aren't that many.. Where it might get a bit complicated is if you have to replace the bearing race at the bottom of the worm gear as that requires a special tool.

The top race of the worm is VERY hard to find NOS.

[email protected] Neal Jennings, one of the best steering box rebuilders in the country if you get in over your head.
