Need clarification on power steering swap

Going to be swapping power steering into my 69 c10 but after doing some reading I am a little confused about what parts I need. I am swapping to discs up front so I will be using 73-87 ball joints and tie rods. I would also like to use a 73-87 steering box for the quicker ratio. So do I need a pitman arm, idler arm, and center link for a 69 or for a 73-87?

I used a 1984 C10 box with the 72 P.S. Pitman arm all other parts are original 1970. Works great.

Alright I think I had the wrong pitman arm selected for the steering box and idler arm I was going to use, maybe it would have worked but I'll just go with what worked for you. Thanks for the help.
