Allong as the king pins are not frozen from lack of lubrication and you are not running radial tires the car should not require excessive steering force when moving, It will reqire more forse when standinng stiil. Compared to a 1039-1948 it will require considerly more effor due to the wide low pressure tires and the fact that there is more weight on the front wheels.
In mid 1950 the steering gear ratio was changed to require less effort in turning the steering wheell at low speed or when not moving.
