Thanks for the great tutorial, gave me the confidence I was lacking...mine turned out great. I removed arm, removed main shaft and gear. Cleaned everything reassembled. Thanks for letting us know the tap size. I filled mine with light weight Grease.

This week I cleaned up my 70 Typ 3 Steerbox and closed it with 90w TRANSM fluid as my workshop manual calls for it. Book said 4.6 oz and then bolt on cover. Yours looking great. Call me VW

I tapped n installed grease zirks on mine without removing it I probably should have since the plastic plugs crumbled n fell inside but I figured it’ll be ok lol anyway just another way I did with the zirks

[@scrapdaddysgarage5027]

I would have done that but didn’t have any Zirks that big! Thanks for watching

The Steering Box is supposed to be FILLED with EP90 or EP80 Gear OIL and NOT Grease. I suppose the Lower SEAL were leaking already. Otherwise why not use Gear Oil

[@scrapdaddysgarage5027]

Yes I know. Grease won’t leak out quickly. I appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.
