HI All,
I will be replcacing the pitman arm seal on my 2210 soon. I got a hammer puller to get the pitman arm off. It looks like it might be leaking grease, but I hope it has 90wt in the steering box. Is there a drain plug on the steering box? I know I have to remove the fuel tank to get to the filler plug. I was just hoping there would be a way to drain the oil or remove the grease without having to remove the entire steering box.
Another question. I know the pitman arm is a SOB to get off, but is it equally hard to get back on? I was thinking of using a rubbe mallet and block of wood to get her back on. I just don't want to damage anything in the steering box.
If anyone has been through this ordeal and has any pointers, that would be great. Thanks.
