I put the power steering off a 79 scout II onto my 77 Fj40. It works ok, and the pump seems really strong. It will easily turn the tiny p235s with one finger(Swampers coming when i get done building). However the steering box has a "rough" spot. It seems to be somewhere around the middle. For example, if you turn it lock to lock - its 1/3 easy, 1/3 hard, 1/3 easy. It seems to be like something inside the box is dragging or catching. It also leaks a little from right above the pitman arm. I was thinking about rebuilding it to fix the leak anyway. Does anyone know what would cause this? Is it fixable or junk?
Thanks in advance
