Howdy back to ya! I thought the same thing about a replacement, but I was told by some old experts that 9 out of 10 posts would end up the same way because the owners never knew that upper seal was gone, and most never checked the lube level in the steering box. IH shoulda put a grease zerk there, as well as the clutch pedal. I would personally have to check each one before I actually bought one. That seemed impractical, and the salvage yards were not enthused about pulling alot of 'em just to find one to good enough to sell. That's why I opted to fix my own.

I reside in Spring Valley, MN. Just a hoot 'n a holler from you...best of luck...Randy
