How to convert from 67 ram assist to normal power steering

hey guys, my 67 has original ram assist on it and I want to do away with it all and convert to normal ps like the later 68-72 trucks have. I have all new front end components and I still have slop in my steering from the old original gear box and plus the ram assist leaks terrible. I’ve seen some guys rebuild theirs, but I’d rather do away with it. I’ve searches and found some good info but nothing exactly stating what all I need to do the conversion. I would appreciate if some of you experts would chime in and help me out, I’m sure this has been done a lot. I know I will need a steering box and from what I gather a 69/72 center link as well. Also a pitman arm. So i assume if I buy a center link that my current inner tie rods and such will bolt right up? Also do I need a new ps pump or will my hoses hook up to the new box. I would like someone to give me a list of everything I will need or need to know to do the swap with so I can assure I have everything! I appreciate y’all guys, lots of knowledge in this forum!
