Steering box lubrication

[Ford406go]

My 63 galaxie needs fresh lube in the gear box..if my memory serves me correctly..the lube originally used was of a graphite base..anyone have input on this? Is it still available? If so..from who? What's my alternative? Steering gear box.

I've always packed my boxes with John Deere Corn Head grease. Cheap, works fine and never had an issue......

Redhead Steering Gear put 00 grease in my 55 Tbird box when they rebuilt it; it doesn't leak. Early Corvette boxes leaked. Under warranty, the fix was 00 grease.
