What To Do About Steering '50 3100

Last bit of the basic puzzle is what to do about steering.

We all know the cab is a tight on space and I'd really like to get a tilt column. But in all my reading the majority of advice is "I think a column from such and such year van might work."

What WORKS?

Likewise, how does one get power steering with a 235? All the kits are for V8's or otherwise cause tire rubbing on right turns.

Any advice on options that have actually be done and that work would be awesome!

Here's my main source of confusion: Some of the kits, like CPP's, come in 2 varieties. Does the one that uses the 69-87 Chevy 2wd box NOT need a pump? If not, why not?

Chevrolet van columns from 71 to 82 had the ignition key in the dash.
