Welcome Ken!
Don't kmow what else you'd need, but obviously the pump with reservoir, the mounting bracket to the block, the correct fanbelt (don't think you'll need to replace the crank pulley, but not sure), you'll need the power-steering box and of course the pipes to connect up. Also not sure about your steering rod, if it's got to be modified or not. Mine has PS as standard, but maybe someone who has fitted it as after-market would be able to tell you more.

When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!
