Sir

For whatever size of engine that you may have ( 225 slant six, A318 or LA318 and etc ) you will need the complete set of pulley's and bracket's for that engine to include the other items which bolt on that you may already have.

Once you aquire all of the bolt to engine items, then you are ready to look for the power steering unit and the parts that go with your two wheel drive or four wheel vehicle.

And ...

the steering coluim and assorted items.

Until you have the complete package, keep the OEM "Armstrong unit".

ps

our 1970 W100 and the 1978 D150 both have the OEM "Armstrong unit"

Are you interested in the factory, hydraulic power assist setup; or a custom modification using a Ford or Toyota box?
