Love your truck. I had one just like it. 30 gas tank.30/31 head lights etc. Fun vehicle. We put hay bails in the back for the kids to sit on in parades. The grease fitting on the steering box was used with the special grease that would creep. Regular axle grease does not return after being squeezer out of the gears. Adjust your steering box first to see it it is worn out. Cleanout the box and use 140wt oil.
Join a local Model A club and ask for help. Rebuilding the steering is a fun job. You will learn a lot about you truck..
