If the power steering box is leaking below the adjusting nut, it is like that the seal is faulty. Replace the seal on the power steering box.
To replace the steering gear box seal on a 1994 Ford Ranger, first, safely lift the vehicle and remove the front wheels for easier access. Drain the power steering fluid and disconnect the steering linkage and power steering lines from the gear box. Remove the gear box from its mounting, replace the worn seal with a new one, and reassemble everything by reversing the disassembly steps. Finally, refill the power steering fluid and check for leaks before taking the vehicle for a test drive.
If the steering box is not worn out, there is a "lower end" seal kit available that replaces the old seals. This requires a few special tools and mechanical knowledge. Your local auto parts store can supply you the seal kit and possibly loan you the special tools to do the job. However if the steering box is worn out, you can replace it with a new or rebuilt steering box.
Buy a seal kit from Mitsubishi for £80 and get your local garage to fit it.
This may help, from another forum: My 300TE has started to lose power steering fluid. The reservoir drains over about a month, you can see the fluid on the base of the steering box :( . Is there a seal I can replace easily, or am I up for a lot of
It would leak power steering fluid out of the gear box.
on a 1989 Isuzu pickup you need to take out the left speakerto get to the signal and hazard light flasher ..The control box for the flashers and turn indicators is all contained within the steering column. Not the easiest to get to.
Disconnect the steering column from the power steering box in the engine compartment (there is a seal and it will not pull out easy). Remove the cover from underneath the steering column inside the car. Disconnect all wire connectors. There is a bracket underneath the column - remove the four bolts from it. There is s boot seal where the column goes through the firewall - it may also contains a bolt that wiil need to be removed. If it has a column shifter, you will need to disconnect this as well. Make sure when you slide the new steering column into the power steering box that the tires are straight and so is the steering wheel. If you forget, the steering wheel will not be straight while driving.
I HAVE A 99 250 SD 4X4 . THE STEERING BOX JUST BLEW A GASKET AND IS LEAKING ALL OVER CAN'T EVEN DRIVE IT. I AM GOING TO REPLACE GEAR BOX BUT I KNOW THEY MAKE A SEAL KIT FOR THEM I HAVE ONE BUT NEVER USED IT.
The complete steering box comes out the bottom, without steering wheel attached.
