Power Steer for FJ40

Hey guys - this is not my usual forum but I have just bought an FJ40 for a bit of a muck about truck but it really does need power steer.
Is this bolt on and what parts do I need - its got 60 series diffs if that helps..... I have never touched a Toyota 4x4 before but have done many nissans but I know the FJ series is a bit weird with parts interchangeability.
any help would be great.

for a 40 that is stayin reasonably standard you can get all the power steering gear (box , pump etc ) of a late model 40 or HJ47
wreckers should have the 40 , 47 p/s , maybe even jap import, but it might cost $$$$
OR you can fit a 60 or 75 series p/steering system (with a few mods)
