Hi Chris, never seen any of your posts before. Hope you make it back to the pull-a-part before someone else gets those seats. Several of us here have recently installed upgraded seats. Good find, and good luck.
I’m not posting much mostly read posts about issues I’m having but I was Extremely excited yesterday about those seats 🤣🤣 and I doubt if they go anywhere they had 5 out there and they all had decent guts just wrecked pretty bad will post when I get Them

i did some head scratching under it this weekend/last night/ tonight,i'd like some input to see what you kids think it is.abet it might be an elementry request but input's welcome..I've got a ps leak that's resulting in a film on the front of everything under there,i think it's the box.the box has some oil mist on it.top/motor side.the bottom of the box has a drip or two with more oil mist,the sector shaft is a tad wet(rust free),there's a drip on the end of the pitman arm/meets the center link..the lines aren't very wet so i don't think it's that.thanks in advance.

Depending on the age of the pump, the shaft seal is starting to wear, or it’s the pump to reservoir o ring. Although the O ring never really goes bad.

Because I don't know which style lines/box you have.....o-rings at hardline connections to box weeping?

I haven’t taken one of these boxes apart, but does the top cover have pressure behind it? If there’s a gasket type seal under it it could be starting to go bad, or it could be one of the lines.

I worked on the doors, switched out the wiring for the windows since a few wires broke off the window switch connectors I had. Found the door switches and wire in an old Cadillac and surprised the switches were the same style that my GP had and ones that I could find anywhere..... :)
