power steering gear box compatibility(what years work)

[treveiger]

Hey guys, I have a 69 Chevy truck with I think around 86 power steering box but the pump is a 69, I found this out while trying to replace my pressure hose for my power steering(the guy welded it...). So now sense there two different fittings on those p.s. pressure lines I'm wondering what would be easiest an cheapest to make this work. I thought about switching the gearing box to a 69 but would I also need new steering components to make it work? Could I switch to the power steering pump but wouldn't I need new brackets and would the pulleys line up? Right now I'm looking at making up a custom line out of the two hoses but don't know if it'll work. Any help would be awesome.
