Default steering box seal

Cubby102 , Did you ever get a seal for the lever on the steering box? I've used shipping foam to make one and it worked great. I read on here somewhere that another member did the same , just can't remember who it was. Also on my 104 I used a wheel bearing instead of the bushing in the top of the column. It was a little loose, so I wrapped a few turns of aluminum tape around bearing until it fit. BTW your progress is looking great. I know how it is working on a budget. Can't wait to see it finished. Chris
