power steering conversion

Hey guys I'm about to rip the IFS steering box, cooler, lines, and reservoir out an 85. I'm going to go ahead and install it on my 84 straight axle with the old school push pull steering. Id like to know if I'm forgetting any parts, as well as know of any troubles or hardship any of you have run into along the way of converting over to power steering.

The only reason you would use a IFS box is to put a crossover steering or Hy steer kit on a straight axle truck
everthing else you have will swap over,pump ,lines,cooler,lots of good information on this!

85 pickups and 4Runners were SFA stock.

86+ was IFS box etc.

IFS box won't clear without 3" of lift or so.

Search High crossover steering.
