Ram Assist Swap? ‘68

I have a ‘68 1/2ton CST, 327/400. It has the ram assist PS, I want to swap to an integral PS gearbox (circa late 70s). I’m clear on the fitment of the box, my questions are related to PS pump fittings and steering linkage.

1. Will my current PS pump work, or is it unique to the ram assist? Just get new hoses and bolt them in?

2. Will I need to change my linkage? (Tie rods, drag links, pitman and idler arm) or asked another way...is the ram assist steering linkage different than the integrated box linkage.

Thanks!
