Just wanted to follow up my previous post, that link to the rebuild was for reference, unless you really want to go all the way. I merely cleaned mine up and resealed it. I followed these instruction from Texas Firefighter here in this thread. His directions were spot on and considering that I've never done this before and pulled it off with his method says he's got this down right.

I realize I'm a little late to this but I recently rebuilt my saginaw power steering box. The kit was around $25 from Rock Auto. It's a fairly straight forward process if you're comfortable with your mechanical abilities. I rebuilt mine on the kitchen table in one evening. Box feels much better now and no longer leaks.

What was included in the kit? Just all new seals?

All new seals and replacement bearings. It's only like $6 more for the entire kit so I couldn't justify only resealing it while I had it off the truck.
