Carpet around the Steering column

[davidkerryedwards]

I just did this on my 82 since I'm working on the power steering. Are you sure
it is not the
return hose? Mine was leaking right there where it attaches to the box. I
don't know what
you mean by the pedestal for the phone, since I don't have one, but I just
removed the
cover around the steering shaft, unbolted the accelerator and peeled back the
carpet and
underlayment, then removed the cover at the steering box.
Have them check the return hose while they are in there. Mine was in extremely
bad
condition.
