This is a natural point to install a PS kit. You can keep the stock steering wheel and mast, and also the stock straight axle. If you take that route, you will want to know about the correct drive pulley for youe setup too.

This has been done many time. The steering box needs to be spaced over 1 1/4 inches. Slot the holes in the dash also. It has no ill affects on steering and is allmost undetected. Been done since the 265 came out in 55.
