make sure you know what pump you have.

That's not for Thompson pumps. I believe the 59 dodge should have the 2nd type of Thompson pump and then there is a federal pump also.

Only need the New O ring seal kit for the Pump as it has a very minor drip,,

My main leak is top of the steering box though , Was hoping it was also a quick fix on a external Seal,, Just need info or a diagram to show it, Google search doeasnt show anything

If you mean the adjuster screw/nut, then there's a very normal o-ring under the nut Clive.

If that's your main leak, just loosen and remove the nut without moving the screw and you'll see the remains of the old one

Hi Sven

I mean the top of the Steering Box where the column shaft joins, Well that is where it appears to be coming from looking underneath the car,,

Ok Clive, then it's best to rebuild the steering gear, the steering shaft seal is worn out.
