Thats about all I needed pretty quick and simple installation. Took me about three hours with no air tools. Oh and I got an alignment done after as well. Runs great so easy to steer now, almost to easy one finger. I should have did this years ago. Good luck

Why did you need a new pitman arm? I did the swap with the setup off my 68 3/4 ton onto my little swb. Didn't have to mess with the arm at all. Drives great. I just used the gear box and went with a much newer pump since I hate the res on the fender well. Was just curious.
