Got rid of the 70km/h death wobbles, but the wobbles stuffed up the steering box, it[s leaking from the steering shaft, before I start pulling it apart, I would like to know if it[s only busted seals or if I am looking at some expensive repair?

Btw, wobbles were fixed with a decent wheel alignment and balance.

could be just seals but at worst case you will have wear marks on the shafts themselves

Stuart, howz it going mate?

The box had never leaked before until I got the first wobble 1 week ago, so am thinking about seals at the moment.
