cummins
I just picked up a 93, fell in love with it on-line got it home before even starting it.
Drove it today and that cummins is so sweet ! Apparently the power steering is leaking !
Wondering if it is a common thing and what I can do ?
What else should I look out for ?
Thanks
J

is the input shaft on the steering box leaking? generally that is about the only common leak with age. any other leak are not really normal and most likely caused by the environment that it is driven in especially in the winter. most of the time a lot of the issues with these vehicles is just seals dried with age or lack of maintenance.
