Need help w/ broken steering box gear!!!

Greets to all, and Happy New Year.
The steering box on my all manual 70 D100 has apparently bitten the dust. I drove the truck a few blocks today and parked. Returned later and started the truck to go home and after making a right turn the steering went. Now the steering wheel turns and turns and turns and the wheels do nothing. Anyone know if there's aftermarket available or what I could look for in the junkyard? A bolt-in replacement would be ideal but I know how hard some of these parts are to find. This is my main vehicle and I need to get her back on the road ASAP. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
