Mid-Fifty and other vendors have a complete kit for the Toyota PS swap. You need a 79-mid 84 Toyota 4x4 PS box like this:
Ferguson777 (if he's feeling up to it) can e-mail you a copy of the tech article on the swap or I can send it after I get home tonight. It's a pretty easy install, and the cost isn't that bad. The kit is about $249 Bracket, Pitman arm & U-joint. You'll still need hoses plus the cost of the box.

Do a search for steering column. Most choices are stock, Ididit/Flaming River (GM Based), or a salvaged GM column. I like the 77-81 Chevy Van column (good length, tilt, no key on column).

I happen to have for sale at half price a nearly new alternate ps unit...the bolt on slave cylinder style, which is also sold by many vendors. This enables you to keep your stock steering box and column, etc. since all connections are done down in the tie rod area.
