power steering question

I am putting the power steerin gear box from my '84 'burby onto my 69 C10. will the '84 pitman arm work on the '69 drag link? Or do I have to use the entire steering linkage from the '84? will the idler arm work the same?Thanks

Re: power steering question

Does your 69 have power steering? If so, use the pitman from it.

If you now have manual, I think you need find a pitman for a 69 w/ps.

I can't say for sure, but I believe the stud from the pitman to the centerlink is larger on the 84.

Re: power steering question

I'm gonna say yes. They use the same box, except the 84 may have metric line threads.
