Fern: Are you talking about the steering gear at the steering wheel or the pedestal up front? If this is the steering wheel gearbox, yeah, sounds like it could be dry. Is there oil leaking around the pitman arm shaft? If so it probably is. Look right behind the battery tray at the steering gear. There should be a sort of flat area almost the same height as the battery. On top of this hump there is a plug.
