Well it only appears to be leaking from one seal point...at a diamond shaped 
plate that is bolted with 2 bolts on the bottom of the rack close to the 
gear...


I saw a rebuil kit at one of the list vendors for like 60 bucks...it would 
figure that I would only need one ;-) Did something similar on a steering 
box on a motorhome...40 bucks and only needed two small seals...there was no 
way I was rebuilding that whole box unless I had to...


Any other suggestions :-)
