Power Steering Conversion

I have a 1977 F-250 4x4 Ford Pickup that has the original power steering, the steering stabilizer works off of the power steering pump, but it leaks everywhere. Ford Motor does not make a kit to repair it. What do I need to go to a more modern steering including a gear box, power steering pump, and the whole works? I would appreciate any information you could give me.

Power Steering Conversion

Click on the link below to the tech article (from this site) on this subject. I have done this myself, so e-mail me with any questions. BTW, the "stabilizer" (as you call it) is really a hydraulic ram.
