If the leak is from the bottom of the sector shaft, there is a repair ket, available at the dealer. comes with new seals and bushings. I remove the pitman arm, with a pitman arm puller, then remove the snap ring, then either use a seal remover, or start the jeep and turn the wheel and shut it off fast, have a bucket under the shaft to catch the seals bushings and fluid, now just instal the new parts.
