To be sure, this is manual steering correct? No power assist?
When jacked up, can you turn the steering now? With handle up or down?
It's a very simple manual steering drive unit. If you cant turn it, the radial rings are seized. That's all folks!
They are sealed units from the factory and have no grease fittings. Water can enter them over time and will seize them solid.
