yeah it all depends on what parts you are using. I did our '66 in about the time frame Tony is saying, i used factory p/s steering brackets, had to raise the engine slightly to install them. I had to do some frame welding. found some cracks under the manual box. The truck already had the newer cross member and steering components. I did use the stock column, so I had to cut it down and weld it. oh and it takes a little bit of time to bleed the air out of the system also.
it is very do-able in a day
