Manual Rack and pinion for 72C10?

I have searched this site and many others, and still haven’t found much information for converting a72 to a Manual rack. The older posts mostly just buffer, I did find a more recent one from 2022 asking for the same info for a 65.

There are a lot of nice kits for power racks. I have checked websites for: Flaming River, CPP,No limit, Trz Motorsports, Unisteer, POL, and Fatman Fab.
I’m not interested in a complete front suspension at this time, but a conversion kit that works with the stock crossmember would be great.

I would consider piecing together something too, if detailed instructions were available. I can cut, grind, weld.
In the end I would like to lose weight off the front end, and reduce a bit of parasitic drag off the engine, as well as clean up the engine bay.
Any thoughts?
