Justin, If the coupling your talking about is the rag joint (little rubber disk) between the collum and the gear box, they can be had at your local parts store for under 10 bucks.
I'm not sure what to tell you about the pump brackets. It will depend on the engine. What engine do you have?
The parts you have will bolt in, but there may be some minor rewireing for the collum to make your turn signals and horn work correctly.

Yes that is correct the manual collum is longer. You need to make sure your 77 collum is for power steering. If you need to know the correct length, give me a yell. I have 2 collums in the garage for power steering.
