Default Re: Another 7 tooth Steering Question

It’s been….interesting. Had to chisel out the bushing to even get the rods out. Box had been filled with grease by my uncle sometime in the 70’s/80’s. I put 600w in it a few years back. Tbh it was super smooth but it leaked.

Bottom felt seal was basically gone. I wanted to run one of this that has a pipe that goes up above the oil level but a quick measure and the hold in my steering shaft isn’t large enough.

Stripping the housing and painting it next.

What’s the current thought on what lube to put in there? I kind of like the idea of cornhead grease mixed with 600w…
