power steering

2wd got either power or manual steering, and 4x4 got manual or power assist. Same steering box for either for the 4x4. I know the 68-72 with the Ford power steering box had different columns for power and manual steering, not sure on the later ones though.
There were aftermarket companies that made add-on power assist units, but Ford used integrated power steering in all 2wd trucks and cars from the mid 60s on.

And yes, power assist is the separate valve and ram on the linkage.

Nah, the reskined falcons kept using the power assist ram style until it *finally* died off at the end of the 1980 model year, when the grenade started using the fox body and rack & pinion steering.
