Disassemble the steering box carefully, noting position of parts. Check for excess play in the bushings and bearings. Most likely the bushings are worn, since they have been in use for 50 years. Steering boxes loose oil and it's never replaced. It may be running dry by now. If the worm on the end of the steering shaft and the worm gear teeth look as good in the center as on the ends, you can usually replace bushings and bring the steering back to service limits. There may be an adjustment screw on the box to take up wear also.
