Will 1965 f100 Power steering fit my 1962 f100

Hi all.. I have an opportunity to buy a 1965 f100 (long bed) and wanted to find out if the power steering off of it will fit my 1962 Ford f100 unibody (shortbed)?

Also, What other parts are interchangeable? I am trying to determine if it is worth the $500-600 the guy wants for it.

No, from what i have been told you can use a toyota 4x4 box with mods.

Or! you can buy the no limit set up, which looks awesome!
>>> http://nolimit.net/prodinfo.asp?number=PS-SA-
they offer one for the 61-64 trucks

There isn't much beyond fenders, hood, etc that will fit your uni. You might be better off investing that money in the No Limit Engineering power rack & pinion kit like Bill said, if you're planning to keep the straight front axle. Here's a link to a thread that shows the kit.

Put a duplicate posting in the 48-60 forum, bnut just to cover my bets so to say, I was wondering who else may have tried this kit?

Looks really good, but the ad says you cannot use the STD 3 speed column change. So just fishing to see if anyone has found a way round that, or if there is no way round.

The 3 speed column takes up too much room. You almost need to start with an entire new column to use the No Limit Kit. A stock 61 to 64 column needs to be highly modified.
