Steering gear box leaks can it be rebuilt

[bmklawt]

The steering gearbox on my 2005 Silverado with only 44000 miles leaks where the pitman arm attaches.
Is there a seal there I can replace or is there a rebuild kit for this, I can only find rebuild gear boxes for this.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Had new seals put in at a service place.

Apparently there are two seals on the pitman arm back to back

I did this on a olds cutlass 1986 model year rear wheel drive.. the seal was about 25 dollars..I did the labor.. 132 for labor 2 hrs work is good price.. I did not enjoy doing that job...removal was hard ..install no problem..

replace the fluid every 5-6 years... need to suck it out..fluid goes bad over time...mileage is no factor...
