What steering set up do you have? Is it full hydrostatic, or is the steering box under the fuel tank with a drag link to the front axle?

I would likely start with the pump. Check the fluid level in the reservoir and make sure the filter is not collapsed.

Most hard steering issues that I have had on any of our Fords has been a result of a low fluid level.
