Power brakes

Home again! Im gone 2 weeks at atime on a tugboat.Anyway I'm keeping the straight axle and drum brakes on the 58 for now. I'd like to put power brakes on.Any suggestions.Also I'll post pictures of my power steering tommorow night when I get to Oklahoma.My son and his 58 live there and I live 500 miles away in Tx. I get up there for a week every 5 weeks.Maybe someone can tell me what kind of steering mess I have from the pics.

It was on it when we got the truck.Ill see if I can find numbers on it.Cutting through the finderwell sure messed the truck up.The tire hits the draglink when you turn right.
