Thanks John,

I haven't done anything to it. I saw they changed steering boxes I think I saw just before 1950, and I don't know the patient history on this tractor other than what I was given when I bought it a few months ago. The man that sold it to me worked on them as a hobby, he did give me a manual with dates and prices of things he has done to the tractor. I looked and didn't really see anything for the steering box. Everything seems nice and pretty tight (minus the play in the steering wheel before anything really moves). I am probably going to take the hood off and see if I can figure out how to take the box off and then tear it down to see what parts look worn / need replacement.
