Extremely underrated video, thanks for documenting the process. Hope you’re still enjoying your vette!

Thanks for the comment. Yes, I am still enjoying the vette and this year was a major year in terms of doing a bunch of steering and suspension work. Getting this vette updated for the next several years.

I really appreciate you documenting this so well! I'm about to start restoring my 77 and the power steering is close to the top of the list. Glad to have a good idea of what I'm going into.

Glad I could help! It's a tough job and so much has to be done in order to totally overhaul and/or replace. Next video posted will be all about the power steering pump. Thanks for your comment. J

Hi Jonathan... Awesome video as always. Really appreciate all the time you take to show us in great detail how to repair and deal with these C3's. I have a question. I've developed a power steering leak on the shaft end of the cylinder and saw how you replaced the seals on the bench. Can I replace the seals without removing it from the car by basically removing it from the bracket and the hoses and letting it hang from the ball joint? It seems like it can be done but just wanted to check with you..... Kindest regards!

Greetings from Pennsylvania! Thanks so much for the video, very helpful. One questions: Do you think a pickle fork would suffice for this job, or is the ball joint separator tool really necessary? From your video, I wasn't sure if the separator was helping, but could certainly see the pickle fork doing it's job. Ditto on the control valve video. I may be wrong... Thanks!

where's part 2?

Try using aluminum brite on your aluminum parts. It gets them down to bare aluminum. Use rubber gloves and safety glasses. I got mine from O'Riley Auto Parts store, and I use it to clean all my aluminum parts for my 81 I'm rebuilding. Works great!!

Thanks for the tip! I'll do that.

Hi.. do I need to remove the oil pan and oil filter like you did.. great video thank you...

@Motorcycology Год назад

No, not at all for the steering work. You can do all that with the oil pan in place. I needed to put in a new oil pan gasket and to get the pan off I had to remover the exhaust "Y" pipe from the manifold to make the space to get the pan off. Lots of work. Keep motivated and good luck with you work. J
