Steering Gear Box

Since my engine is out of the truck, I've been cleaning everything I find. I just noticed yesterday that my steering box is coated with oil, and I'm guessing it's a bit too far away from the engine for it to be covered in engine oil. Are there a few simple seals that can be replaced, or a rebuild kit, or what? I was looking at the FSM and it looks pretty straight forward, but...I see two or three seals that look fairly easy to get at. Anybody have any experience with it? I don't have power steering, if that makes any difference.

i think i remember a rebuild write up on 4crawler's website, he has just about covered everything. Search around a little here: 4Crawler.com might find what you need...

Didn't find anything there, but I'll bet I can do it pretty easily.
