I noticed in my owners manual under lubricants it mentioned some kind of steering gear lubricant or something to that effect.
Is there something I should be doing to maintain/care about the steering box? Is it filled with some kind of fluid? Is it covered by the ATF in the power steering system (in which case, flushing power steering system covers steering gear as well ?).
I apologize if this is a completely stupid question. I have never seen anyone talk about maintaining the steering box and I have always wondered if it requires maintenance I'm not aware of beyond taking care of the power steering pump and fluid
