Those are almost needed for a teenager like myself to safely drive an older truck like this. and thats a few weeks of working just to be able to drive safely, then i still have to paint it haha, oh i will keep working on getting lower priced goods
If you get a 2wd, you can swap the whole front cross member from a later model truck to get p/s and disc brakes. Captainfab has brackets for the p/s box and brake booster. I haven't personally used them, but I hear only good things about them.
