There aren't any 73-87 6 lug 2wd front ends. They all had 5 lug. I think CPP has some 6 lug rotors, though.

I think the power steering would be the same. There are a couple links on here about converting to the 73-up box. Tony has even had some spacers made. I would guess that you would use all of the 73-up steering linkage, and mount the box and idler arm to your existing frame.
