85 RX7 Manual Gearbox Help (leaking)
I am in the process of working on my Friends 85 FB RX7. The car is equipped with a manual steering gearbox that is leaking from the bottom. I have searched but I have found no replacement seals for this gearbox. Does anybody have any idea where I can purchase seals for this manual gearbox?

I have already tried RockAuto. They only sell the seal kit for the power steering version not the manual rack. I emailed Ray at malloy but I have yet to get a response. Does anyone have his most up to date phone number?

Just an update: I went to my local Mazda and they happened to have the rebuild kit in stock. Only 4 are currently available in the United States with this kit being on of them. The kit can no longer be ordered as a whole from Japan either. Unfortunately the seal kit set me back $160 and this is very well the last one I will ever be able to get my hands on.
