Thanks,

its way cheaper to replace the box with another used one. but its your money.

Do you know where I can find one?

Same place as you'll find parts for any 70-80 year old tractor: At the tractor salvage yard.

You can most likely get any bearings and seals you need matched up at a bearing shop, but the "hard parts" are long out of production. The ones you see them making new parts for these days had 250,000+ produced, or the same basic design was in production for 25 or so years.

Only cost me like 80 bucks to do the steering box on my I-4, but that was years ago, and I didnt need gears.
