Thinking of putting power steering in my car would like pictures of the set up in a car due to my budget i can only afford one piece at a time it would be the steering shaft, steering box and hoses , pitman arm, steering pump and brackets,

You'd need the steering box, the steering column (or just the shaft if you feel like doing swap-surgery), the pump and brackets, the belt sheave to bolt onto the front of the crankshaft pulley, and new hoses. The pitman arm is the same power/nonpower.

My advice is to purchase a factory service manual for your vehicle. It will have the best diagrams and photos you can get.

There is only one spot the power steering pump bracketry mounts- those holes on the driver's side of the block. If one or more of those holes are being used by the aftermarket AC brackets, you may need to change the AC brackets to install power steering. The factory AC bracket was separate from the power steering pump brackets, so you may be able to find an AC bracket from a different vehicle and use that instead of your current brackets.

I am attaching a picture of the power steering pump mounting on my 1976 Dodge D100. This bracket looks a little different than most passenger car brackets and other truck or van brackets I have seen, but it is factory and it works.

I actually have a set of passenger car power steering pump brackets and the front sheave for the crank damper that you need to drive the power steering pump belt. Let me know if you are interested in purchasing them.
