You might get a hold of Midwest Steering. They have a lot of the older steering gears and components to rebuild.
Their website is www dot midweststeering dot com
Just remove the "dot" with a actual period to get to their website.

This sounds like a very old truck to me, something like a K51 the way you have described the steering. It sounds to me like the steering comprises of a steering colume with box and a drop arm that a drag link is fit to the box being of a worm and peg type. If it is like that I think you will have a hard time sorting it as I don't think any parts will be available.

What I'm looking for is the steering unit or gearbox. Inside it has a wormgear on the vertical shaft the steering wheel bolts to that turns the splined shaft that holds the tie rod to the steering wheels. It's like a right angle gearbox.
