Okay so i had to replace my steering box cause the pitman arm seal went out. Prior to this it never leaked or anything. After replacing the box it leaked real bad from the high pressure line were it connects to the box. So i replaced the line...didnt see anyhing weird or messed up about anything....its now leaking even worse with the new line.


Am i missing something here? Is there suppose to be an o ring or anything of that nature?

I'm going through a quart of fluid in about a 20 minute drive.

Thanks guys. I'm stumped on this one.

Mine leaked really bad from the high pressure line when I replaced it, where it goes into the box you really need to crank down on that line.

I thought those lines on the box were inverted flare so they have to be pretty snug. I could also see getting a bad line.
