    First, welcome aboard!
    Second... do a search on our forums, and in the tech section of our home page. Everything you ask has already been discussed here, some things MANY times!
    Do a search, learn what you can from the good info we have already documented... then come back with specific questions, and you'll get all the help you need.

    :)

    First off, welcome!!!

    Second, the 4.3 will work nicely, the TH350 is a wee bit long but it can be done.

    See Novak Adapters or E-bay for the TH350 to D18 adaptor.

    For your front axle you can swap in a Dana 30 with disks from a later CJ-5 or CJ-7 on it or put disks on the Dana 25 that you have.

    The easier swap is 11" drums:

    Power steering is doable, you'll need to do a Saginaw upgrade. Just do a search here and you'll find plenty of information on what you need I'm sure.

    Also be sure to check out the rest of the tech section articles to see what else we may cover there.
