Steering box seals

[Morr]

I'd have to reinstall window though to create a new partition, wouldn't i?

You can get partitioning tools to save needing to reinstall, easily found if you have broadband to download, otherwise if you're coming up to Jim's for the rad, let me know and I'll pop some stuff on a disc and drop it round to his for ya.

Daaayng I luv that shop, spent 1hr last Thurs and another today. Theres just tooooo much. Thursday I bought a feeler gauge, a set of crows foot wrenchers, and something else??? Today I got a hole saw arbor bit and a 27mm HSS steel hole cutter bit and it eats steel for fun. Pity the shop is so Draper oriented. Must be other stuff European out there ten times better just its not printed with English.

Went into the new Halfords shop today, have to say its full of tools you just dont get in the average car shop, they had a set of halpro reversible ratchet spanners for a whopping €80 but these had a 90degree swept bend in the shaft of the spanner, a definite chrimbo pressie sometime if ever someone likes me enough to buy me a chrimbo pressie.

I knew the fella well who owned the shop before Hals bought him out, he was in the sisters class in Coolmine and they reckon he got €4m.

I bought a seal kit for my steering box and proceeded to stripthe box and replace all seals. Everything was going well until near the end. Took out all the seals at the base of the shaft the pitman arm bolts to and all of the replacment seals were too small. So i reused to old ones. Trouble is, the outermost oil seal is fubbed and the new one is too small. Toyota must have started using a smaller shaft in their steering gears, cause it aint right. The part no for the seal kit was 04445-35100. Has anyone done this and had the same problem or did they give me the wrong kit. Gonna call them today but anyones help is appreciated.
Your sincerely

Yep I heard that figure a few months ago too, split 4 ways between them, not bad going.

I did actually enjoy rebuilding it. Just annoyed with Toyota F-up. I love tinkering with new stuff like that. Thats what makes being a surf owner so great! Sometimes.

Maurice. Got that disk. Thanks a bunch! Will try it out later!
