Power Steering Leakage

Hey guys,

I have a leak at the rear seal of my power steering pump. Can I just take off all the bolts and install a new rear seal with all the lines still attached. Is store brand ATF ok, such as Advance Auto or Walmart? Also, I have a leak at my input shaft of the steering box. I recall a part number for just the seal, but can't find it anymore. Does anybody have that part number? Is that a tough job to do?

If the pump is leaking, take it off and rebuild it on the bench. Rebuild kits are widely available.

I just replaced mine. Pretty straightforward job and it only took a couple hours. One thing you don't want to do is break the thing the vacuum lines connect to. I did and they're expensive......
