[FWDLK] 1955 power steering leak



Hi Everyone I have been trying to stop the leak at the pitman arm shaft for a few years now and have installed a few seals.  This weekend I am going to try installing a new seal again with a shim that I was told would take care of it.{ I can’t remember the name of if it slides over the shaft and you then install the seal} 

I was wondering if anyone else with this problem has had any luck with one of these seals with this shim or is there another way to repair this with out removing the power steering unit as this is the only leak and the steering seems to work great.

 

I also have an issue with my brakes I rebuilt the booster and master about a year and half ago and the brakes work great but when I first press on the pedal there is a lot of play I have to pump the pedal a little then the brakes feel and work fine.  Is there air in the line ?  or is there some think else I should be checking.  I have a big car show in August in stowe Vermont and just want to take care of these few problems first.
