With a little fabrication you can upgrade to a 78/79 steering box for true integral power steering, do a quick search and more than a few threads should pop up regarding this topic.

Have similar need on my 77 F250 H.B. Apparently you have to locate a steering box from a 1978-79 and graft it in. Sent you a PM.
