real bad steering box leak

Hi guys, I have hi steer with hydro assist. I went wheeling and had to drive it back to a buddies house to get back to my trailer. On the way home the power steering pump got real loud. Found a massive leak at the input shaft. It is coming from under the shaft and just running out. Is there a seal behind that shaft I get to without tearing the box down and rebuilding it? Thank you!

I'm hoping that you have the older style IFS box so that the input shaft cover can be removed and a new seal tapped in it. Everything you need is here:

I think I do.... I got it from a yard online. It looks like the cover should come off once the shaft is popped off and use a hammer and small chissel to remove the cover. Thank you!
