I hope someone out there can help me find bendix ram seals for these really hard to find parts that are obsolete

When I had my hiboy, it had just started to leak. Guy I sold it to swapped a Dana 60 axle and steering from a '79 350.

That's what I see some guys have done cause it's hard to find them seals but I hope will be lucky and find someone that has seals for it somewhere so I don't have to do the swap

I did keep a whole front axle and steering box from a '76 F-250 I scrapped, but I'd bet the seals are just as bad as yours.

Looking at the pictures of what the kid did to 'er, I'm glad I sold, but do miss the mighty girl.



He did a Dana 60 swap, new front fenders, doors, added a sound system, and 37's.
