power steering swap

As I wrap up my suspension/brake project, I'm looking at the power steering project. I thought I could just buy a kit, similar to the disc brake kits, but no luck, so it's off to the junkyard I go.

Is there a certain year that works better then others, or do I just look for any 73-87 truck? I've read that it's important to get all the brackets, pulleys, etc from the same vehicle, so I'll do that. Will I need any parts after the steering box (between steering box and the wheels)?

Once I get all the used parts, should I look into a new steering box and ps pump? It's a bunch of extra cash, but I don't want the used parts failing in a year or two.
