what's the deal?

dbeeeer · Sep 29, 2025

I've got my 1968 Coronet R/ T running, I have changed the pitman arm seal three times and the power steering pump with 3 different ones, pitman seal still leaks. In some posts I've read here, members have said some of the aftermarket pressure seals for the pitman arm are lacking. Any suggestions where I can get an American made good seal??
Thanks,
Doug

FYI:
Will NOT fit '62-72 A, B body
Will not fit 70-72 E-body.
Large sector shaft started in 1973 I think.

Booger has two listed. One small shaft, one big.

C-bodies started using the large pitman shaft in the early '60's. B-vans in '71. A,B, and E bodies in '73.

It sounds to me like a problem with the pitman shaft itself. I would inspect it very closely this time.

what's the deal?
