I was just wondering if anybody has an exploded view of a power steering box for a 1996 Dodge Dakota. I have a leak coming from the top of the pitman arm out of my power steering box. It's not a hose so it must be a seal. I was wondering if anybody knows what seal that might be? Would it be the shaft seal, the pump seal or the gear seal?

Thanks

 

You can buy a rebuild kit for it for about $12 or so. Just get that and replace them all. Chances are if one is bad the others will fail shortly.

 

This is 4WD?

Yes it's 4WD.

 

Yup... than the illustration Chump provided is you. Recirculating ball gear box.

 

You can get the pitman arm seal kit at almost any parts store. You will need to get a puller also, most places will loan you one. Make sure you don't have a leak at the input shaft seal also, it's the one on top where the steering column connects.
