You should start by studying the section in the Bentley about 
assembling and adjusting the steering gear. It pays to come to grips 
with what's going on in there. The adjustment procedure is quite 
detailed and it's important to carry out the adjustments in the 
proper order.  

If your old one is actually shot, I believe a later one is a drop-in 
replacement. You may have to reuse your old Pittman arm, unless the 
replacement came from a later type 3.
