I believe u need a power steering box but maybe you can just tap the one you have already. Of course you need the pump,lines and all that bull as well. You could buy an aftermarket pump and all that but you can also go to junkyard and pull one off a 22r (79-85)? i haven't done the swap so you should get other imput from other sources. try searching. there is no electrical or vaccum lines for these pumps so it should just bolt up and work.

When I put p/s on my 81 22R, I pulled the system from an 82. I got the steering box, pump, pressure line from pump to steering box, return line to reservoir, cooler lines/cooler tubing that mounts behind the grille, pump mounting bracket and belt tensioner. The only thing I didn't get was the crank pulley, as it is wider than stock pulley without p/s.

You need the power steering pump, pump bracket, power steering reservoir, return hose, high pressure hose and a longer belt. I recommend going to a junk yard or try eBay. Installation should only take about an hour if you know how to turn a wrench.
