The mail thing is to use something fluid , _not_ grease ! STP or 
similar if your seal is hot but fluidity is critical as these boxes 
are recirculating ball typ and _will_not_ be lubricated if you squish 
grease in there .
 
Any one here have acess to a Mc Kay catalog ? they should make some 
typ of steering box lube , they make everything else .
 
I've heard nothing but good about American Classic , maybe they're 
just busy ? . two weeks isn't too bad .
