I only drove the car a handfull of times. I didn't notice any problems with the steering, nor any leaks. I took out the complete interior (except the headliner and rear seat, yet). Since I rebuilt the PS pump and I took off the Oil Filter housing, I wanted to torque the oil filter housing bolts. I guess I could have bought an allen extension with the ball end. I also cleaned the frame in that area. I don't think reassembling the worm gear was that much of a problem. It was finding the BBs, having to clean the garage to make sure I found them all and then assembling it correctly. Yes, I tought his article was very well written and excellent pictures. I didn't bother to take any. I did notice that the lower lube port on mine (pitman arm end) looked to be blocked ot gummed up. There was some discolorization on it. Many of the O-rings were flat when taken out. I have new hoses too. I plan to use synthetic PS fluid.
