Ford, NAPA...everyone carries them, as they fit most of the 1967-80's trucks and Ford passenger cars from 1965 thru the 1980's.
These steering gear boxes aren't known for reliability. You might be better off getting a rebuilt unit. You will need a pickle fork (Pitman arm puller) to remove the Pitman arm.

Doesn't the '76 F-250 4x4 use power assist, not the power steering gearbox? He did ask for the power assist seals. The "everyone carries them" seal kit is for the Ford integral power steering geabox is it not (up to the '80's).

He didn't make it clear if he wanted steering gear box seals, or ram and control valve seals.
So much has been swapped around on these old trucks, who knows what ppl want unless they are SPECIFIC in their requests. I'm NOT a mindreader.
OP..I listed steering gear box seals for a power steering integral Bendix gearbox...DISREGARD if you don't have this setup.
Which seal kits? Ram and/or Control Valve? The CV has a ball and stud kit (3A533), and two seal kits (3A674 & 3A650), the Ram has a seal kit (3A764) and a bushing mount kit (3C590).

It looks to be a Bendix. When I google those part numbers that NumberDummy gave me, they come up parts for Mercury, T-Birds, Rancheros and others. Are those kits interchangeable with the trucks or are there more to the part numbers? Thanks

Bill gave you integral steering box seal numbers.
Have you considered the swap to integral power steering ?
There is one user here who wrote a complete article on the power assist and posted it in this forum.
I can't remember his name but it was in about September 2006.
If I recall his user name I'll post back here.
