49 B1 Steering Box

As in NEW new?  You won't find those.  Boxes are usually rebuildable,  several sources for that if needed or it's fairly simple to do on your own if the internals are still good.  Have you tried adjusting the box first and/or eliminated any other points of excessive movement?  Service manual can walk you through the adjustment process step by step.  If thinking of a more modern box that will bolt in with some fab work, you may want t look at a Toyota box.  I've heard they were used  on Ford pickups of the era and the steering design is similar.  Whether or not it's close enough to make work or has been used on a Dodge, can't say for sure.

Hi,

RockAuto handled the rebuild of my B2B box.  It was completely worn out and required machining of new parts.  Total cost was about $450.
