power steering conversion questions

so, I finally found a power steering pump and bracket setup for my nieces 77s f150 2wd. 6 cyl, 3 on the tree if that matters.


now I need a box.


what years can I use for a donor?


other than box, pump, lines, brackets, and belt, any changes? steering column the same? pitman arm? rag joint?


thanks. I looked through the faq's, and also googled, but didn't really find anything.

thanks for any help you can throw my way. pretty much, I need to know what all I need to know to make this a simple and quick swap.

When I converted my 74 I used the box and column from a 76. The column for power steering is shorter than the manual column. I would think any 73-79 box and column would work. Recomend getting the box rebuilt by red head.
