PS fluid leaking around output shaft onto pitman arm. Assume seal leak. Easy DIY repair or dismantle steering box to replace seals from inside? Continuos oil leak till all drains out. Can watch oil run out onto pitman arm. Thanks for any help.

Hi
For that severe a leak recomend replace steering gear either reman or bone yard.By the time you pull that one out tear down replace bushings , seals and most likely pitman shaft you'll spend more time and money than to replace.
Hope this helps
Thanks for donate
