FX26D Parts - power steering

[edigokie]

Just got off the phone with Matt@Hoye and was dismayed to learn there are no parts for my power steering. Started leaking fluid out the top of the unit yesterday and I obviously have no steering. Matt recommended taking the unit to a local hydraulic shop for rebuild. Can anyone recommend a shop that rebuilds these units? I am in South Central Texas, but would ship anywhere to get it done right. Thanks -great forum. Hoye is great to work with BTW.

i had a similar problem with on old GMC pickup. It turned out that it just needed what they called a seal kit. i bet that it probably needs something similar

if you can be more specific on where the leak is...is it where the hydraulic lines enter the back of the hyd. cylinder? if so you may just need a few new crush washers. or like sailor bob said just a seal kit. the p.s. on these is pretty simple. if it is the cylinder you can rebuild the unit.
