I have some freeplay in the steering wheel and was thinking maybe it's the dogbone but then I was looking at the pitman arm I see some power steering fluid seeping out. Looks like a bad seal in the gearbox. Would replacing the seal help or should I get a junkyard box for $85? I can get a reman'd gearbox for $231 + $100 core.

junkyard around my area quoted me $250 for the one on the shelf. my buddy will let me have one for $40 if i pull it myself. I say replace the whole box. I'll be replacing mine when i do my lift.
