pitman arm

i am in the process of converting my 69 f100 to power steering. i am using a ps pump,gear, column, driver side fe engine perch from a 69 f250.

my next project will be to add front disc brakes.

i understand there will be differences in king pin diameters.

my question is, will i need a different pitman arm if i am using a 73-79 f100/f150 donor truck?

thanks for any help. sorry if this has been answered before, i have been doing some reading, and getting some conflicting information.
