Cleaning all the old goop off it went to the metal in a lot of places and I didn't want to leave it that way.
That looks so tidy. It's got to feel good knowing that rust will no longer be lurking under the seal.

I'm planning on installing a quick ratio steering gearbox. While I'm at it, I'm going to replace my current one piece decapitator steering shaft with a newer two-piece style with an intermediate shaft. Will improve safety, and will make removing and installing the column easier. I cleaned up and painted an intermediate shaft I bought from Jeff's Bowties.
