4wdfactory.com
They have the kit you need, comes with drop pitman, drag link, tie rods, and kingpin cap. Along with all D60 kingpin repair parts you need. Polyperformance.com has bronze upper bushings for the D60 to replace the teflons. I did a write up on mine; search the aftermarket section. It's in there somewhere. You'll want to either make; or invest in a steering brace. These frames weren't meant to be torsional tolerant. The steering box will flex like mad.

Factory steering box will work, that same site sells the pitman arm separately. You just install the pitman arm so it's parallel to the frame. You are aware the box is moved to the 2wd holes in the frame and you ditch the 4wd bracket right? There's an aftermarket steering box that's supposed to be **** but I can't remember who makes it. Not necessary tho.
