Welcome to the board!! I havent heard of that swap but it sounds plausible. Another popular choice is to use the power steering box from a 79-84 Toyota 4x4. Its almost a bolt in installation. The biggest drawback to the toyo swap is you lose your horn button in the steering column.

Maybe one of the big truck guy will pipe in here and teach us about the F600 box
