I'm installing a Vintage Air Gen 5 A/C kit on this, the black plate I made was to mount the Sanden pump that comes with the kit.

This is my engine bay I know that's it's a little bit messy

This is a used power steering pump which is temporary until I get my saginaw, could I convert it into serpentine belt?

If I were you I'd call a place like Summit Racing and get their input. I think that way you'll get the right parts all in one place..

The upper and lower ball joints are likely to be the Moog K 772

These are the parts that I am looking forward to order.
1. I don't know if the rack bellow is long enough.
2. Regarding the upper and lower ball joints I think they are wrong and wont fit.

You are correct in that the ball joints you listed are wrong. Like suggested, you will be better off contacting a supplier like Summit or Jegs and ordering everything from them to avoid duplicate and wrong parts. The rack bellow length is not important, it is only meant to keep crap out of the rack.

Where are you and your truck located? How about a full rundown on your truck? It kind of sounds like it may be new to you and that it is a recent addition to your stable which makes you unsure of what you have or need, is that a fair assessment? Help us help you.

I wonder if you don't really need the whole ball joint or tie rod end, but only need the rubber boots? No point in replacing good parts if you only need the seals.

Great idea might order boots and keep these ones as spare.
