You didn't mention what engine your truck has but if you are getting the power steering components from a wrecking yard donor, get all the pulleys (crank shaft and water pump) and the entire power steering components associated to that engine so that everything will transfer over to your engine.

The stock engine options for a '67 F-100 were 240, 300 or 352. Although, anything could have been swapped into the truck.

I have the stock 240 (for now) in my '69 F-100. Bobby has a 460 in his '72 but, we both are installing front discs from a '77 in our trucks.

I don't know if you have a power brake booster or plan to install one but, '67 was an odd - ball year when it comes to brake boosters. You would either have to find a '67 model booster/booster brackets or, use a '68 - up booster and then swap your brake pedal/pedal hanger out for the year model truck the booster is taken from.

Here's a link detailing the changes I'm currently making to my '69 F-100 short bed Ranger with a 240 and C-4 transmission.

I just did the disc conversion on my early 71. I took the parts out of a donor '74. There are a few things to not forget.. The pitman arm was different from my early 71, so I took all the steering linkage, but I geuss that goes without saying if you're doing the steering upgrade as well.

The other stuff I forgot on my first trip to the junkyard was the bracket(s) for the brake booster, as well as the proportioning valve for the disc/drum pressure difference from the master cylinder.

FWIW, there are many aftermarket booster/master options available. I was limited on booster diameter but wanted decent power assist so I went with an 8" dual diaphragm booster. Some fab skills are required to install aftermarket parts. There are universal firewall brackets and linkage available.
