Steering problem
1964 Ford Thunderbird V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

My repair manual calls for the use of Type A automatic transmission fluid in the power steering and transmission. The local auto parts stores do not carry Type A fluid. The manual also says that the power steering and transmission share oil. I do not want to damage the transmission.

Is there an equivalent replacement oil for Type A fluid?
