i removeded my steering gear box. thanks for all your help. Do you all have any tips on installing it. especially getting the nuts and bolts that hold the steering column. They were a bear to get off and seems even more difficult to get back. any other help with the install would be appreciated. I was able to remove it without taking off the sterring wheel.

Unfortunately, these early Thunderbirds did not have a lot of room to work on things under the hood. I just replaced the fuel pump on ours and had to disconnect the power steering pump to do so. I grew up working on this vintage Fords and older. Patience was the first thing my dad (a Ford Mechanic) taught me. I don't mean to be a smart butt I just know things are really tight on the driver's side of the engine!
 
This car has headers i thought would be harder but it came out going up easily. Going back maybe not so much
