The donor tractor had a small lightweight steering box, thought better but tried mounting it. Wasn't heavy enough and too low a ratio, only 2 turns lock to lock. Found a more suitable one but it led a rough life. There was bolt broken off in it and one of the mounting lugs was snapped off.
Before.

Welded in. I can't get sharpe edges so build up more than needed.

Trimmed up and drilled.

Have the steering gear mounted now to try this box.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
