Transmission: My FMX leaks at the shift selector shaft on the drivers side. I replaced the seal on one of these 30 years ago, but I don’t remember if it was just an o-ring or if it was a special seal with a inner spring. Anybody know for sure? If it is just an o-ring, is it anything special or just a generic o-ring? If special, any idea what to order?
Steering Box: For the power steering box I figure it is likely the main shaft that holds the pitman arm. On my last car (a ‘73 Mustang) that was the leaking point. For that one I bought a rebuild kit. I couldn’t get the box apart, so I took it somewhere and they put the seals in while I waited for 40 minutes or so. I looked at NPD for a seal kit and didn’t see a kit that looked the same. This one seems to be most extensive: 3C538-1 https://www.npdlink.com/product/seal-and-gasket-kit-steering-gear-master-kit/148828 Any input or advice on this?
Thank you!
