1872 steering oil leak
 

Started leaking oil from under the steering wheel. Will the steering pump need complete rebuild.. Has anyone had this happen???

Here ya go.

Just dealt with this on a similar tractor. I would say odds are 100%
that the steering box is what is leaking.
Oak has you on the right track.

Thank you oak, so much

Just watch out for the flying springs!!!

Leadslinger is correct.:biggrin2:

Here is the spring kit. Steiner is cheaper than Cub.

Now that doesn't look like a fun fix! Maybe it's not too bad once you tear into it?

Its one of those fixes that scares me a bit. I have one here that needs
gone through. Maybe you will be the trailblazer I need to get myself brave.
I know soon I will tear into it but only because I have these fix it guys to
get me through it. :beer2:

At least you'll have two guys to blame if things don't go right. :biggrin2:

Keep us posted on your project.

Do follow the instructions and pay careful attention as to how things were taken apart, take lots of pictures.
And cleanliness is imperative!
If it don't seem right, or feel right it prolly isn't.
