Carl,

The steering box on our Austin-Healey is very similar to the steering box
used on many highway and commercial trucks. I know that comment will not be
a surprise to many. There are firms that specialize in
rebuilding/remanufacturing steering gears for heavy equipment that can
rebuild the AH steering box.
