Hey, i was just looking through a bunch of extra parts that came with my truck when I bought it, and I think I found all the parts for power steering. I found a power steering gearbox, and a power steering pump. Do I also need some sort of resivour? (I know its spelled wrong) I any of you have done a power steering conversion please send me some pics and info! Thanks.

You'll need the resevoir, hoses, and pump mntg bracket if you don't have them. Early 22R pump brackets are not an exact fit for later 22Rs and REs (slightly different hole pattern).

Also along with the holes theres a fuild cooling tube that goes in the middle of one of the hose lines and mounts in front of the of the radiator. I'll look to see if I have any pics. The lit' women left with my digital camera for the week, so if I don't have any I can get them next week for you. If you still need them by then.

Thanks, I think I figured it out, but it won't work. The pitman arm (i think its called) off of the power steering gearbox is set up differents because it is off of a 2wd truck and won't work with my 4wd. Correct me if I am wrong!

If the PS gear box is from a 2WD truck and you want to put it on a solid axle 4WD truck, no it won't work, they're very different steering systems.
The 2WD truck steering is like the IFS 4WD trucks, but smaller.
