- The Saginaw 708 is a recirculating-style power steering gear box used on many vehicles across many manufacturers and years. In this case it's from a mid-70's Dodge Power Wagon. In part 2 I cover reassembly of the gear box.

Tank you!! I have to do the same rebuilt job on the steering gear of my 1994 Chevrolet pick up truck. I've check several videos and I have to say that your is the one that help me the most. Very very good explanations and very good video quality.
Glad you found it helpful
You are kicking butt on this project! Kudos and happy holiday.
try heating the teflon in boiling water to soften them. that is what we do at were i work .
Good idea!
Hello sir, graet job on the rebuilt. I had watched your video and also rebuilt my 2000 GMC steering box which happen to be just like this one. The box seems to be ok except I now have a automatic steering I don't know how to fix I had a broken clock spring and I was trying to knock off the steering wheel before I actually got a puller, now the steering turns automatically to the right whenever I start the truck and just stay there with a clicking sound. It there an adjustment on the steering column or somewhere to adjust the steering back to normal, I did I mess up with the box rebuilt? I really need some help,
I can't figure it out.
I really enjoyed this video. The view of the work was excellent and the sound was very good. Thank you.
Hello sir, could you please provide the Gates part number for the rebuild kit?
So I must ask, why did you rebuild this gear box? Did you have any leaking seals. If you rebuilt it due to excessive play which could not be adjusted then you would have had to replace the rack and pinion components. This would also give you a new channel for the balls to run on against the spool valve reducing any play.
Because I'm rebuilding every part going onto the truck. The seals on this one were shot.
Seams 1 Ball from the bearing went to the wrong direction, see 16:52
Amigo, desde panama. Esa caja en que carro trabaja, pues, tengo un tractor agricola que le puedo adaptar esa y necesito ubicarla para mandarla a pedir
This is a very, very common steering gear, in cars and trucks for decades.
A small piston ring installation tool works great to get the spool valve and bore piston back in place.
Good idea!
are those ball bearings stainless? long story I got water in my saginaw box.
I would assume high carbon chromium steel
can i know the kit you used to rebuild it link or part number 🧐
I just added the part number and a link to the description
Be sure to have the box turned all the way to one side when you hook the pitman arm up to the drag link. That always makes for an exciting first drive.
Good times!
Way to go on informing all on the incorrect way to rebuild a Saginaw box
No problem. We're all looking forward to seeing your videos on correct way.
