Hi Greg,

ZF steering systems was taken over by Bosch last year.

Nevertheless, they still care about older Zf systems.

Maybe you try the following adress ( this friendly man gave me recommendations about correct oil)

Good luck!

The Steering Box is a ZF Gemmer Steering.
All Fiat Dinos have the same one.

Bearings and Seals are available, other spare parts not.
The Steering box can be adjusted in two ways, with the screw on top and with the thickness of sealing/washer at the side.

Maybe you can get an improvement by cleaning and proper adjustment.
How do you define wear in your case?

Worst thing that can happen is real wear on the surface of the roller - that is difficult to fix and spares are not existent.
Maybe you can get a used steering box somewhere in that case.

Hope adjustment will get proper improvement.

KR, Thomas
