1984 Pickup/manual Steering To Power Steering Conversion!!!!!

[JOET/CAMRY]

Hello everyone,
I wanted to know what was involved in converting a 1984 nissan 2wheel drive pickup from manual steering to power steering. I was hoping to get the parts from an old nissan pickup from my local auto salvage yard. is there alot involved in doing the conversion? is it possible? what year pickups were the same style/generation as an 1984 pickup?

any help/advice will be appriceated.

Regards,
JOET/CAMRY

Datsun/Nissan pickups of the 720 series (80-86) are the same suspension wise (80 had L20 motor, others had Z motor); wish I could tell you about steering swap, had 82 w/manual steering and traded it cause wife couldn't drive it (should have traded wife & kept truck). Should be easy enough to find parts trucks - worth a try! Good luck!

i did one on a 84 pickup, wasn't very hard, just need the pump, mounts, lines and box. took me about 2 hours to swap it over
