What Lubricant To Use In A Manual Steering Box?

I am rebuilding an old Saginaw manual steering box from a junkyard to downgrade my 1974 1/2 ton short box from power steering hot rod style. I removed loads of goop from it, which was too thick to be gear oil and more like grease. Now when I put it back together I don't know what to fill it with. On the InterWebs I have seen guys use everything from CV joint grease to gear oil to even some guys mixing the two together. Could you help me and my beloved truck Rusty out please and recommend the proper concoction?
