    Same here, we tell them we can try a new seal but if it leaks again we need to do a reman gear box. That's what we do on our company trucks as well.

    Lift the front axle off the ground and cycle the steering box from stop to stop to get the air out

    Lucas got some extra years out of a backhoe shuttle shift for me but a steering specialty company told me if you put Lucas in a Sheppard Sector it will fail. It was some years ago and could have changed.
    Many stop leak products soften seals are take some time to work.
    If you have a unit that actually requires P/S fluid and use ATF or motor oil it will be toast in about a week.
    Sheppard 15w40. Rose-TRW ATF. Names on the box.
