Power steering parts id

A few weeks back a fellow gave me a powersteering gear box and pump that he felt like I could use on my 66.
It looks to be the correct pump.The gear box appears to be a couple inchs taller than the manual 1 in the truck.
I am trying to fiqure out if this box is the correct 1 I can use with my stock 3 on the tree shifter column without changeing all that.
Is there some part numbers I can look for?
Also,is the shaft that the peice is attached to that interlocks with the rag joint moveable inside the steering shaft?It looks like there is a clamp and the rod looks like it could slide up a inch or so.I am thinking with the slots in the steering column mount,the fact it looks like I have the column to low at the moment,and if that piece would slide up into the steering rod,I could use this box.
All I would need then is brackets to hold the pump onto my 300 I6 and the hoses.I have a double crank pulley on a spare engine.

Pictures would help but it really sounds like you have a saginaw box as they are longer than the other two boxes. Your column does not have nearly enough adjustment to use the longer box and so you have to find a three speed PS column from a 70-77 truck (they are rare but are out there). Post some pictures and it would be easy to ID what you have. Hawkrod
