Re: 1962 c20
It sounds like you have the original style power assist steering, is this correct? It sounds to me like the pump is under pressure all the time and it shouldn't be. I'm not an expert, but If you do have the assist steering, I think there may be an adjustment in the control valve. If you have trouble finding adjustment info, try looking for the info for a pre '76(?) Vette. They share the same steering setup.
BTW. Welcome to the board  I would like to see some pics of your truck.......
