Hi all,

My power steering box was leaking on the worm shaft end of things. I assumed it was that little seal on the spline shaft. I went ahead and pulled the box because I couldn't get the roll pin driven out of the coupler, and when I got the box out, I discovered the spanner nut was loose by a lot. I don't think that happened in the course of removing the box, I am figuring if the nut was as tight as it should be, I would need a wrench to loosen it.

Anyway, would it be correct that if that nut was loose, it would cause the box to leak? I am assuming that's the case, but I figured I would run it by the experts.

Thanks.

Greg
