Depends if you go with stock steering setup you need power steering pump and mounting brackets for engine plus steering gear and hoses from an 85 or earlier power steering equipped vehicle. But if you go with a high steer conversion you can use parts from an 86-95 IFS truck, which is better. http://www.marlincrawler.com/tech/gu...l-instructions

Look harder! It gets brought up all the time.

If you stick with push pull steering, then yeah, you need the reservoir, hoses, pump, steering box, belt pulley and mounting brackets from a solid front axle truck.
