I continued to search and found a post in the suspention FAQ which SCOTI mentioned to change the pitman arm and center link, but while looking through a MOOG parts book today at the parts store it says the center link is the same on my 70 C20 and for example a 74 C10

I am pretty sure mine has power steering, there's a pump and hoses by my steering box, do I need to swap that out with the newer year? or can I leave my pitman arm, idler arm and center link and just swap out tie rods and adjuster sleeves?

This is where the confusion comes on, some posts say you gotta swap it out, some say it works without. Any help would be sweet, the more info I gather from here the more I hope to give back at a later time.
