Steering boxes 140-160

posted by  someone claiming to be Tumbleweed on  Mon Apr 23 11:51 CST 2007 [RELATED]

Hi all, this is just an off topic tip rearding steering boxes:

The oil seal at the bottom of the steering box can go bad and leave a mysterious sticky oil stain at your garage floor. This was the case of my -68 164, and the solution was to fill the box up with grease. A wellknown fix amongst the Landroverheads. No more leaks, and the box works smoothly. (it takes a week or two for the old oil to seep past the broken seal, but after that - bob's your uncle)

1968 164, production number 107, first registered november 5th 1968.
