Manual Steering Box Lube
The service manual for my '64 Tempest calls for "all-season steering gear lubricant" for the manual steering box. Looking for reccomendations for current lubricants on the market........

I have used a whole tube of grease in a badly leaking box.
 Mostly 85w90 rear end lube gets used, as it is about the same viscosity as 30 wt engine oil. I wouldn't have a problem with using synthetic 20w50 engine oil either. that's what is in one of my 63's now for 60,000+ miles.
