Truck Tech,

There is no torsion arm on this steering box. It's direct hydrualic. Nothing but hoses from the box to the cylinder.

That's why I wasn't sure on what was causing this wander problem. Some strange hydrualic bypass problem in the cylinder. If that was the case then I would just use a reman instead of repacking the original cylinder.

As for the cylinder itself, I believe that this one isn't a sealed unit. I believe that it has a "C" clip that holds the gland seal packing at the end of the cylinder.

Fact of the week
Funerals in Spain typically occur within 24 to 48 hours of death, whereas in other European countries they wait one or more weeks. This rapid timeframe is a cultural norm grown from the past need to manage the warm climate without modern embalming.
