After fighting with the manual steering and 35" tires for about a year now, I finally fixed it. The "Armstrong" steering was getting tough in parking lots.

I already had the front axle out of an 89 Suburban. The manual disc brakes were a major improvement over the manual drums up front. I snagged the steering gear and drag link from the same truck. I dimpled the frame and redrilled four holes then spaced the gear out with 3 washers. I had to trim the inner fender to use the Suburban pressure and return lines. (which i replaced with new) The pump and brackets are from a 72 C10.
