I have a 68 K-10. i want PS! Can you provide a list of everything I need to make this happen. Will buy your plate and rag coupler if needed. Want to keep old steering colum.

1) You will need a '68-'87 K series, or '88-'91 V series steering box and the pitman arm.

2) You will need the correct draglink for the front axle you are running.

3) You will need a power steering pump, brackets and pulleys for the engine you are running.

4) You will need the appropriate belt to drive the pump, and also the pressure and return lines from the pump to the box.

5) You may need a new rag joint, depending on whether you get a good one with the box or not.

6) There is bound to be some miscellaneous nuts, bolts, washers, clamps, fittings, etc. that you may need.

7) You will need an adapter plate to mount the box to the frame. The tube and flange will simplify the connection to your original steering column shaft.

I thank you sir! Does your plate work with the suggested boxes and could you clarify #7 about the the tube and flange?

Yes my power steering box adapter plate works with that year range of steering box....that is what it is designed to work with. The tube and flange allows you to connect your original steering column shaft to the power steering bos without having to weld. I'mnot sure on the '67-'68 4wd's. but if it is the same as the 2wd's your steering column shaft is already the correct length. So you may not need the tube and flange. This steering box adapter and the tube and flange was designed specifically for the '63-'66 trucks, so your situation will be a little different.

Post #203 above lists everything you will need. I don't have pics handy at the moment, but those are a part of the installation instructions.
