ford 3000 power steering column & gearbox rebuild kit

I'm converting my ford 3000 from manual to power steering and I picked up a used steering column at a local salvage yard. It was sitting outside for who knows how long and I'd like to do a complete rebuild on the entire steering assembly (valve, column, gearbox). I'm looking for a kit as I'm not familiar enough to select the parts individually. Does anyone know if something like that is available? All of the metal components (plungers, springs, bearings, gears, etc.) are in good shape so it's mainly the seals, gaskets, and o-rings that I'm looking for. I took a look through the steering section on this site, and it doesn't appear like they have a kit or all of the components.
 
You will love having PS on your tractor.
I don't know if there is a kit per se but
if
you print out this photo - or at least
write
these numbers down - and take it to your
New
Holland dealer they can get everything you
need.
For the column you want lower gasket #22,
lower seal #14 two Orings #33 and upper
seal #35.
I recommend you replace the sector shaft
seals too so you don't leak oil down the
sides of your transmission.
For that you will want two sector seals
#51 and two felt washers #59
You can get everything at a good bearing
house too except the lower gasket and felt
washers. But I have found NH to be
reasonable pricewise on those parts and
one stop shopping is nice too.
If your rear tie rod ends are worn out you
will find new PS tie rods to be very
expensive. What I do is buy rear tie rod
ends for a non PS 3000 cut off the old
ones and weld on new. A little grinding,
bondo and paint does a nice job of it for
about 1/4 the price.
