who is the go to guy now?

The seal is relatively easy to install . Many you tube how to videos. If you have a bent shaft or anything else get a different ram. The welding needed to fix that leaves the ram looking different the a assemblyline. Rodes restoration , Chockostang are a couple that installs the seals.

Is Roger Rode still providing this service? Last I know he did not have a web site, but he has been doing very capable power steering rebuilding for decades. Many others advertising this service actually subletted the work to Roger.

Roger Rode is still rebuilding steering components.
He uses a FAX machine, I am not sure that he has email.
