    Any power box from a Jeep with a real frame will work but the pitman arm is intermediate CJ specific. If the box does not come from a 72-75 CJ, you will have to get a new pitman arm. The correct arm is less than $25 at most vendors. The pump can come from any AMC V8 but make sure the hoses have the right kind of fittings for your box. Most people seem to suggest finding a full size Jeep in a boneyard and grabbing the pump, brackets, hoses and box. You will also need the bell coupler as it is different than the joint on the end of your manual steering shaft. I just did a bunch of research on this as I am going the same thing on my 74 CJ-6.
