Hobbs, Oreilly shows a national seal # 471645 for the steering box input shaft seal on a 1988 E350 with a 460. Check with them.

An Eskimo had car trouble in Wyoming and took the car to a shop. The mechanic took a look at his car and said "Looks like you blew a seal", the Eskimo promply replied, " What's wrong with that, I hear ya'll screw sheep around here". Laughing

I saw one on the beach in January...

Oh...back to the motorhome...
If the other part doesn't pan out, try Lares http://www.larescorp.com/ (800) 555-0767

They remanufacture steering boxes for truck fleets.
