[Healeys] Steering Box Seal

[Bob Spidell]

I bent the tip of a (cheap) long, thin slotted screwdriver 90deg and 
used it like a pick.

To replace, I flattened (like a screwdriver) the last inch or so of two 
long steel rods on a bench grinder and "walked" the seal up the shaft 
with the rods and gentle hammer taps.  The rods need to be long enough 
to clear all the brackets and hardware around the steering box.
