Heavy steering is a way of life with old cars and tractors. There are several things that can be done.

1- Live with it.
2- Try straight Power Punch in the gear box.
3- Install an early Nash power steering. Most cars require NO mods to the existing steering
for it. It will most likely require fabrication of a pump mount. On your car the running
board apron would hide the cylinder. The cylinder bears on the pitman arm.
