Replacing steering box seals

The lower seal on my steering box took a crap, the seal where the pitman arm connects is leaking. Last year I put a new steering box on when it failed, and within a year its leaking. I can't find my receipt to warranty the box, so next step is to just replace the seals. Has anybody done this and what special tools may be required.
thanks
brian

Cant help you with the seal replacement, but even with out a receipt the place that you got the box from should have your purchase info on file....Just a thought..
Oh and after you replace/repair this one, get a steering brace.... I learned my lesson after 4 boxes
