My power steering is leaking badly, from the input shaft. Have just bought a box, pump and all the bits from ebay, so....... how hard is it to change the box??? The drop arm looks like potential grief......

How long is a peice of string? 4 big boolts hold the box to the chassis, 1 pinch bolt on the UJ and 3 pipe unions.

So not a lot? took me all damn day :evil:

The box is heavy and awkward, lifting it in and out is a b***er on your own and if you have air conn it's even worse.

Drop arm? once you get the box off, hopefully you took the drop arm nut off at the bigging :wink:  then pick up your biggest hammer and vent your frustration on that drop arm, mine came off with 1 good swing :twisted: .

thought so, although the box I bought has a drop arm on it, I wondered if it would go on complete? And yes, it has aircon!
Thanks for that,

I had to take mine out complete but that was without airconn.  IIRC I had to drop the Panhard rod out of the way though.
