Hydraulic clutch conversion?

I have a 1970 f100 with three on the tree. I was wondering if anyone had tried to convert one of these to hydraulic clutch. What should I use for donor and how difficult is it. I have a bad knee and I like my manual and do not want to swap in a c6 if I can help it.

Here's some info from adding a hydraulic clutch to a 79. Doing it to your 70 should be quite similar. https://www.ford-trucks.com/user_gal...&albumid=11298

Thank you very much for pointing this gallery out to me. It will help me out alot. I still wonder what year to get the master and slave from. Time to go pester autozone. Having them look at several years to find the part should confuse them real good.

Whatever year you get the master & slave for, make sure they are the same year to avoid mismatching problems. Maybe try an 84ish setup, I don't know though if that bellhousing will mate up to your 3 speed or not.
