Steering box on TA/RA23

[damian]

does anybody know what sort of oil to put in a steering box please?

i've heard 80wt and 30wt (and to just tighten the screw a LITTLE)

box is as old as the car, so 34 years.

Consulted the reference manual

80/90 is the go

I can really tech with pre load on the box if you want !

I used the thickest oil i could find... i think it was a diff oil.
Flush it out with petrol a few times first, you would be surprised at the crap that settles in the bottom of it.
