I've searched everywhere, even green bible. Does anyone know the oil capacity for the steering box siii?

Just fill it until full, to the bottom of the fill plug threads. Due to weepy seals, I've found that using the thicker swivel ball grease for the coiler axles in the steering box reduces leakage. Don't forget to fill the steering relay. You will need to remove two of the little screws or bolts on the top edge, one as a filler and one as a vent.

We should have a picnic or something in September, maybe at Sam Lewis park in Wrightsville. How's that sound to you guys?

It was a big deal to me. I had found somebody to talk to even briefly about Rovering. Sometimes I forget I'm in my 30's and get I excited. Seems to me you got your rack off of Dweb etc and so on. Glad you got another rover and we'll have to make a point to meet up again.

I got the rack from a lady in ocean city maryland, but then I sold it on dweb to Ron (evilfiji) out in the philly area. I'm now in the market for a rack for the series, go figure:rolleyes:
