I'm working on restoring my Farmall 240 and today while playing around with the radiator I checked the steering gear housing in the front bolster for lube level. It is nice and clean but somewhat low so I would like to drain it and replace with the correct lubricant. Both my owners manual and the preventive maintenance manual says to use full strength Hi Torque Amplifer Transmission Lubricant Additive or worm gear lubricant. What is suitable for use in this application as these manuals were written 50 to 60 years ago and I've not seen either product or something labeled as such. There is no evidence of leakage or seepage from the gear box and the steering is still tight. My closest CaseIH dealer (60 miles) is a PIA for restoration folks as it seems like too much bother to find everything NLA. Thanks for any suggestions, Hal.
