Hey guys, I got myself a new gearbox to take the slop out of my steering and a new pump to get rid of the one that failed 150 miles ago. So far I've removed the pump and disconnected the gearbox from the lower steering column and then I quit for the day.
I did not buy a new reservoir so I need to get the one I have on there off, I have removed all the power steering lines from it but the reservoir isn't giving at all. I don't see anything that's holding it on except for the nut that the high pressure line screwed into, I'm not sure if this unscrews from the reservoir so I haven't tried for fear of breaking it.
My second issue is the pitman arm, what size is the nut on it? It's bigger than 1" and I am not going to try to remove it with an adjustable wrench.
