Back home from a road trip and a power steering question.

[Richard Hayden]

That the way we did it on last bus - '81FC. I wouldn't call easy for the guy
who was under the bus who had to catch the whole thing, it's heavy. There's no
other way if the gear must be removed to overhaul. But the hose thing was not
bad at all. I was very surprised to find a gold color door hinge under there.
Anybody know what I mean? I guess it was standard procedure then.

Steve Anderson over on the FC forum says he accessed the steering box
and hoses on his 79 from above by removing the driver's seat and a
floor panel. Anyone here try that on an 82? Seems like it would make
the job much easier.
