1964 steering box rebuild
Does anyone have instructions or know how to remove a steering gear box from a 1964 F100? also does anyone know what is usually replaced during a rebuild. Reason for rebuild is i have adjusted the screw all the way in and can still turn the steering wheel a little less than a quarter of a turn before the wheels turn. any help would be greatly appreciated.

1961/64 F100/250 2WD steering gearbox parts
1964 F100/250 2WD (same as 1961/63 2WD)
The only new parts available (from NAPA) are the seal and gasket, the one sector shaft bushing, and the two bearings and races on the steering shaft.
2) C2AZ-3571-A .. Steering Shaft Bearing / 2) C2AZ-3552-A .. Steering Shaft Race / B8A-3576-A .. Sector Shaft Bushing / C7OZ-3591-A .. Sector Shaft Seal / C3AZ-3581-A .. Gasket.
NAPA can cross these Ford part numbers over to the brands they sell. The two steering shaft bearings/races, the seal and gasket are the same as 1965/66 Mustang (!) uses.
When one buys a "rebuilt" gearbox, these are the only parts that have been replaced, because the steering shaft worm / the sector shaft have been obsolete for over 25 years.
In an internet search, I found eleven NOS (new,old stock) steering shaft worms, and two NOS sector shafts.
