What I did was remove the original '36 steering box to frame mounting plate ( with engine removed still a challenge) and replaced it with later mount by bolting it to the frame in place of the rivets. I have '39 pedals so the floorboards had to be modified slightly anyway. The "NOS sector" I got on eBay was junk and replaced it with a new repop. from Argentina and worked out very well. I used the '36 steering arm but had to file in four new grooves so I could index the arm so it didn't hit the wishbone when I make a full right hand turn. NealinCa (on this forum) pressed on the roller and provided the above mentioned sector, maybe the sector wasn't from Argentina now that I think about it.
